The IEC released a new white paper on artificial intelligence developed by its Market Strategy Board. This white paper sets the scene for understanding where artificial intelligence stands today and the outlook for the next 5 to 10 years. Taking an industrial perspective, it discusses in more detail: smart homes, intelligent manufacturing, smart transportation/self-driving vehicles, […]
The IEC set up a new Standardization Evaluation Group (SEG 10) tasked with assessing the impact of ethical issues and societal concerns on artificial intelligence applications. The group is open to all interested experts having knowledge and expertise in these fields. More information (including registration) is available from www.iec.ch/seg10.
“When developing new standards in robotics, social scientists and ethicists need to be involved even more strongly in standardization work on an international and European level, in order to evaluate advantages and disadvantages of atomization in an interdisciplinary way”, Austria’s Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs, Health and Consumer Protection Beate Hartinger-Klein stated at an informal […]

If your organization is interested in participating in OCEANIS, please email oceanis@ieee.org.
‘Incorporating Ethical Considerations in Autonomous & Intelligent Systems (A/IS) – Policy & Industry Requirements in the Algorithmic Age’ was the topic of an interactive workshop that took place in The Hague on 11 June 2018, jointly organized by the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) and TU Delft’s Delft Design for Values (DDFV) Institute: https://beyondstandards.ieee.org/artificial-intelligence/ieee-sa-and-tu-delft-host-workshop-on-ethical-considerations-in-technology
The One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence, launched in the fall of 2014, is a longterm investigation of the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its influences on people, their communities, and society. It considers the science, engineering, and deployment of AI-enabled computing systems. The report is available to download at: https://ai100.stanford.edu/2016-report
