Gathering of field experts to discuss latest possible scientific and engineering approaches, to trigger the positive development concept, is the value this special session wants to provide to the attendees and automotive/ automation (including robotics) industry.
Here are some specific benefits that attendees can expect from the special sessions:
- Get to know the leading players/ experts in the field of AI safety
- Access to different aspects and technical dimensions which might impact AI safety
- Understand possible state of the art technologies in the industry to ensure AI safety
- Touch of the possible shape of future scenarios to instruct business, engineering and research direction
Target and Contributors
The target and contributions include the following:- Safety experts who have experiences to convert safety engineering practice into AI-based practice
- AI and industry (automotive and automation) experts who encounter safety issues during development and try to resolve some solutions
- Scientists and researchers who work on the fundamental elements of AI technologies
- Management and engineering team from industry who apply in-house or state-of-the-art technologies to ensure the safety of AI-based product
Main Topics
Topics in this special session will include, but not limited to:- Needed infrastructure to enable safety AI
- Process and methodology to enable safety AI development
- Evaluate the safety of AI
- The toolchain which can facilitate safer AI
- Collection and generation of effective dataset
- Safety assessment of Large Model AI output
