Maria Santos, BMW's head of manufacturing intelligence, receives a 3:47 AM alert about another production line halt - the third that week. But this moment represents "the last gasps of an era," as automotive AI transforms from $10.88 billion to $17.56 billion market in one year (61.5% growth).

Steve and Claire explore how BMW's Car2X technology turns vehicles into communicative participants in their own assembly, while GM's Kevin Quinn holds an AI-generated aluminum bracket that consolidated eight components into one - "Six months ago, no human engineer could have designed this."

Featured insights include: • Jensen Huang's (NVIDIA) vision of "two factories" - physical and mathematical • Mary Barra's (GM) perspective: "AI empowers our workforce to focus on craftsmanship" • Volvo's Alwin Bakkenes explaining Gaussian splatting for safety testing • Jung Min-ho's (Hyundai) transformation: "The AI doesn't replace what I do. It makes me better" • Mercedes-Benz's Gorden Wagener on AI design potential and limitations

Real transformations: BMW's 1,200 citizen data scientists, 500 minutes of prevented assembly disruption annually, 78% manufacturer AI adoption up from 62%, and the $240 billion semiconductor shortage wake-up call.

Companies featured: BMW, General Motors, NVIDIA, Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Hyundai, Audi, Ford, Penske, Waymo, Cruise, Apptronik

Target audience: Automotive executives, AI professionals, manufacturing leaders, mobility innovators

Auto Agentic (www.autoagentic.ai) is an automotive intelligence company architecting how AI actually operates across dealership organizations.

Founded in 2024, Auto Agentic was created to solve a problem no vendor was addressing: automotive didn’t lack AI tools—it lacked intelligence architecture. As features multiplied, coordination worsened, insight fragmented, and transformation stalled.

Auto Agentic exists to change that.

We design agentic intelligence systems that unify operations, coordinate data and workflows, and enable organizations to move from fragmented automation to connected, predictive, and self-improving intelligence.

Our work is built on three foundations:
• the Automotive Intelligence Pyramid
• a coordinated agentic architecture of 75+ automotive-native agents
• and systematic transformation partnerships

Auto Agentic is SOC 2 Type II certified and trusted in regulated environments.

We don’t deliver tools. We build operating intelligence.

We partner with dealer groups and OEMs to architect how intelligence flows across their organizations—creating companies that coordinate rather than hand off, predict rather than react, and build advantages that compound over time.
