    Ep. 49 | Driven and Connected, Arm VP Talks Intersection of Automotive and IoT

    Dipti Vachani, Senior VP and General Manager of Automotive and IoT at Arm, discusses the convergence of automotive and IoT technologies, explaining how modern vehicles are becoming 'data centers on wheels' requiring heterogeneous compute and pervasive security standards like PSA and Corstone. She reflects on her 17-year tenure at Texas Instruments, where she helped create the Sitara brand, and her subsequent roles at Intel and Arm, highlighting the shift from hardware-centric manufacturing to IP and ecosystem scaling. Vachani emphasizes the importance of 'co-opetition' among competitors to define open standards that enable market scale, while also sharing career advice on setting boundaries, finding advocacy, and navigating gender dynamics in engineering.

    Crushing the AV Dream | Can You Hear Me Now?

    Semicast research analyst Colin Barden argues that the autonomous vehicle (AV) industry's promise of saving lives is a hubristic distraction from the more viable path of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and driver monitoring. He contrasts the 'left fork' of tech companies like Waymo with the 'right fork' of traditional automakers focusing on collaborative driving. The episode then shifts to a roundtable with EE Times editors Junko Yoshida, Sally Ward-Foxton, and Anne-Françoise Palais on the surge of voice recognition technology in consumer electronics, driven by the need for edge processing to reduce cloud costs and improve privacy.
