Prusinski will share findings from a recent industry survey that measured fleet leaders’ understanding, adoption, and trust in generative AI tools. The results reveal a fast-evolving landscape:
More than 40% of fleets are exploring or testing GPT-style interfaces for operational analysis.
Integration complexity, accuracy, and data security remain the top barriers to adoption.
Early adopters report efficiency gains of 8–15%, particularly in TCO analysis, route optimization, and vehicle health monitoring.
The session will explore how GPT-style interfaces compare to traditional dashboards, where fleets are seeing real ROI, and how AI may redefine the role and skill set of the modern fleet manager.
