According to Semcon, a human or another advanced AI solution can access the data, as required.
Stena Line AI head Lars Carlsson said: “Stena Line’s ambition is to be the world’s first cognitive ferry operator using AI throughout the entire organisation. To succeed in this, we need to structure all our data and intelligence and make it available.
“This may involve financial and operational data, for example. It will be exciting to see what new values we can create together with Semcon.”
