AI adoption in the trucking industry is skyrocketing — and leaders, executives and managers of heavy-duty trucking fleets are taking notice.
In this episode of HDT Leadership Insights video podcast, HDT Editor and Associate Publisher Deborah Lockridge sits down with Tim Haynes, VP of Digital and Customer Data at Penske Transportation Solutions, to discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming fleet operations.
This episode of HDT Leadership Insights is produced in partnership with, and sponsored by, Penske.

Haynes shares highlights from Penske's recent survey on fleet AI adoption, insights into the latest enhancements of its Catalyst AI platform, and what fleets should know about implementing AI responsibly.
From route optimization to predictive maintenance and Penske’s innovative Fantasy Fleet tool, this episode explores the real-world impact of AI in transportation, and addresses concerns like data quality, AI “hallucinations,” and human oversight.

One way AI can help heavy duty trucking fleets using Penske's Catalyst AI is finding opportunities to improve fuel mileage.
