When Will Artificial Intelligence Create a Better Car than Humans?

Artificial Intelligence is increasingly making its mark in the automotive industry, to the point of becoming essential.

Audi is a striking example, with over 100 artificial intelligence projects integrated into its production lines. Quality monitoring, automated offer analysis, defect detection on bodywork: the machine aims to be faster, more reliable, and more precise than humans. Through this silent revolution, one question arises: will AI one day be able to design a car better than that conceived by humans?

The strength of Artificial Intelligence lies in its pure rationality. It knows no fatigue, doubt, or distraction. It analyzes hundreds of petabytes of data, evaluates, anticipates, corrects, and optimizes. Where humans see a mechanical assembly, it perceives a system to be continuously refined. The “IRIS” project, for example, verifies technical labels on vehicles with inhuman precision, while “Tender Toucan” reduces the time spent analyzing tenders by 30%. These tools, as discreet as they are effective, testify to a new era where the car is born from algorithms as much as from screws and bolts.

Perfect but soulless?

But is rational perfection enough? An ideal car is not just about its controlled consumption, calculated ergonomics, or optimized logistics. There is also that little extra soul felt when placing a hand on the steering wheel, when welding the right pedal to the metal, or when admiring a body curve. Will Artificial Intelligence ever be able to create a car that is not only perfect but also emotionally impactful? Perhaps. But by that time, will we still be able to tell the difference between a human work and an algorithmic creation?

In the meantime, Artificial Intelligence continues to support engineers, enhance production, and redefine the limits of the industry. And while it may not yet know how to give a car a soul, it can already write newspaper articles without grammatical errors…
