AI for Autonomous and Assisted Driving: Findings of ITU-T Focus Group FG-AI4AD
0Within the autonomous driving domain, Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds the promise to provide practical solutions to address societal challenges on enhancing road safety (in line with SDG 3) and overall traffic efficiency and sustainability (in line with SDG 11). \n\nTo foster the safety of future automated vehicles, ITU-T Study Group 16 on “Multimedia and related digital technologies” established in 2020 the Focus Group on AI for Autonomous and Assisted Driving (FG-AI4AD), which conducted pathbreaking work on the behavioural evaluation of AI as a responsible driver, conceptualized the Molly Problem as an alternate thought expression to the "trolley problem" in the context of autonomous vehicles, and also laid forth the foundation for the defining of a minimal performance threshold for AI systems on the road. \n\nFG-AI4AD’s work culminated in the development of three Technical Reports: \n\nFGAI4AD-01 "Automated driving safety data protocol – Specification" \n\nFGAI4AD-02 "Automated driving safety data protocol – Ethical and legal considerations of continual monitoring" \n\nFGAI4AD-03 "Automated driving safety data protocol – Practical demonstrators" \n\nThis Webinar will provide a unique opportunity to present the key findings in each FG-AI4AD Technical Report, while underscoring future standardization plans and additional activities planned to enhance safety of future autonomous driving. \n\nITU-T Focus Group FG-AI4AD: https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/focusgroups/ai4ad/Pages/default.aspx\n\nJoin the Neural Network! \nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/neural-network/\nThe AI for Good networking community platform powered by AI. \nDesigned to help users build connections with innovators and experts, link innovative ideas with social impact opportunities, and bring the community together to advance the SDGs using AI.\n\n Watch the latest #AIforGood videos!\n\n\nExplore more #AIforGood content:\n AI for Good Top Hits\n • Top Hits \n\n AI for Good Webinars\n • AI for Good Webinars \n\n AI for Good Keynotes\n • AI for Good Keynotes \n\n Stay updated and join our weekly AI for Good newsletter:\nhttp://eepurl.com/gI2kJ5\n\n Discover what's next on our programme!\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/programme/\n\nCheck out the latest AI for Good news:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/newsroom/\n\nExplore the AI for Good blog:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/ai-for-good-blog/\n\n Connect on our social media:\nWebsite: https://aiforgood.itu.int/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/AIforGood\nLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/26511907 \nLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8567748 \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiforgood \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AIforGood\n\nWhat is AI for Good?\nWe have less than 10 years to solve the UN SDGs and AI holds great promise to advance many of the sustainable development goals and targets.\nMore than a Summit, more than a movement, AI for Good is presented as a year round digital platform where AI innovators and problem owners learn, build and connect to help identify practical AI solutions to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.\nAI for Good is organized by ITU in partnership with 40 UN Sister Agencies and co-convened with Switzerland.\n\nDisclaimer:\nThe views and opinions expressed are those of the panelists and do not reflect the official policy of the ITU.
