So first thing, Dr. Catherine, I see that your LinkedIn says professor, doctor, and then you have a big name there.
From your education perspective, is that doctor is something from a medical background or this is more about the PhD?
And the main aspect is that when I started that education, I wanted something that was really hands-on because I was also connected with technology.
I'm also was leading back at the time when I started a team of 45 back at the Volkswagen group where I was the senior research eye scientist, but I also led the transformation for cyber security for the entire car.
So transforming the car into mobile phone, which is regulation 156 here in Europe.
And then the main aspect there was, okay, well, there is the understanding, and I like to give the definition of what AI is for myself, which is applied mathematics with an IT environment and Imitating human cognitive abilities for app particular set of functions or function.
So, so there is not the AI that can do everything just one, one as a human can.
They're just the eyes are able, for example, what I was doing back at the VW group, creating an autonomous driving car.
So it can recognize when a dog is walking by, if it's a ball, if it's a child, how it should react.
