Humane AI explores ethics issues, the role of humans in the operation of AIs, as well as the impact of AI on society and the environment. Indeed, AI is already modifying all lines of businesses and disrupting areas of the economy. The workshop aims to provide an informed insight about the role of AI in the aeronautics industry.
A first pillar of discussion will cover the current, and future, uses of AI in any area of the industry, such as conception, manufacturing, automation of the engineering and assembly phases, aircraft in operations (incl. predictive maintenance), flight and navigation tools, use of AI for logistics (cargo) and services (to passengers and/or airliners). The participants are welcomed to expose both AI “success stories” or lessons learned, and to propose potential emerging technologies and applications.
A second pillar will cover the certification and regulation aspects. The aerospace industry is already highly regulated; new AI regulations such as the EU AI Act are likely to influence or impact this domain. An overview of the challenges, regulatory constraints and potential solutions will enable the participants to better understand and recommend efforts towards certifiable and trustable AI for the aeronautics industry.
Last but not least, the third pillar is named “Better through AI”, to take into account new concerns and considerations about AI in the aeronautical domain. The participants are welcome to expose AI-related ideas, prototypes or efforts a) towards a greener aeronautics industry, and b) about ethical considerations for AI in the aeronautics industry. Notably, the workshop aims to discover and recommend future activities to address the environmental and societal impacts of AI.
