Ford Chairman: Car manufacturing on cusp of greatest change

The car manufacturing industry is on “the cusp of the greatest change” it has ever seen as artificial intelligence and driverless cars become a new reality.

That is the view of executive chairman of the Ford Motor Company William Clay Ford Jr, who was speaking in University College Cork (UCC) to launch a new scholarship.

Mr Ford said the industry was going through the most exciting and greatest period of change in over a century.
