AI4CCAM at the UITP Working Group on Artificial Intelligence
Arnaud Gotlieb, Simula Research Laboratory, AI4CCAM coordinator, had the chance to present the project during the recent UITP Working Group on Artificial Intelligence, held online on 11 December.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing its importance in every sector, including public transport. The use of AI applications in public transport could be one of the critical solutions that efficiently unlocks the value of data to improve the quality and efficiency of the public transport sector.
UITP, AI4CCAM partner, wants to raise awareness, demystify the technology and outline the current landscape of AI applications in public transport. This is the aim of the Working Group.
Arnaud underlined the importance of AI in automated vehicles: a formidable opportunity to increase passenger and road user safety, improve traffic, efficiency, reduce pollution, improve passenger comfort. However, possible threats must be taken into account too. This is what AI4CCAM works on thanks to 9 simulated scenarios including ethical issues and indicators.
Arnaud also announced the launch of the AI4CCAM Participatory Space, early 2025, to build a community of CCAM stakeholders.
