Featured in the CTS webinar: Preparing for AI use in transportation
The University of Minnesota Center for Transportation Studies (CTS) hosted a webinar, Preparing for AI use in transportation, on how artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping the way transportation systems are designed, planned, and managed in Minnesota — from predicting traffic patterns to analyzing vehicle movements.
Prof. Choi was featured alongside Qizhi He (University of Minnesota) and Melissa Barnes (AI program manager, Minnesota Department of Transportation), sharing how AI currently supports transportation work and how professionals can prepare for its growing influence. Prof. Choi emphasized that AI literacy is a core skill for emerging engineers, and that the department has begun integrating AI into its curriculum as public and private agencies pilot AI for operations, maintenance, and planning.
