AI Analysis

This research addresses the problem of AI safety in the aviation industry, which is crucial for regulatory bodies and airlines seeking to adopt AI technologies while ensuring public safety.

This paper examines AI safety regulations in the commercial aviation industry across three regions, providing insights into the stringent regulations and safety-critical procedures. The study covers the United States, European Union, and China, but does not provide specific numbers or results.

In this paper we examine the existing artificial intelligence (AI) policy documents in aviation for the following three regions: the United States, European Union, and China. The aviation industry has always been a first mover in adopting technological advancements. This early adoption offers valuable insights because of its stringent regulations and safety-critical procedures. As a result, the aviation industry provides an optimal platform to counter AI vulnerabilities through its tight regulations, standardization processes, and certification of new technologies.
