Artificial intelligence technology has seen considerable growth in trucking in recent years, with more and more fleets adopting technology that uses machine learning to simplify or enhance certain aspects of the business. That includes some of the processes happening in the trucks themselves.

Jason and Matt are joined this week by Dr. Stefan Heck, CEO of AI camera company Nauto, who talks about how AI cameras in the cab can benefit fleets and drivers, from reducing crashes to improving overall driver safety.

Heck also explains how Nauto's system is designed to not be as intrusive on the privacy of drivers as much as a traditional driver-facing dash cam.
