GM uses AI and human stress sensors to improve autonomous driving tech

General Motors is employing AI to analyze human stress levels and reactions during simulated driving scenarios to enhance its autonomous driving technology. The company uses sensors to monitor physiological responses like heart rate and perspiration, feeding this data into AI systems for analysis. This research is crucial for refining GM's Super Cruise system and preparing for the 2028 debut of its hands-off, eyes-off driving feature in the Cadillac Escalade IQ. AI

IMPACT AI-driven stress analysis will refine driver transition protocols for hands-off autonomous systems.
