THE DANGER OF USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
IN DEVELOPMENT OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
Gabor Kiss Received: 17th December 2018. ABSTRACT The world of autonomous vehicles approaches as technology evolves. Researches have been done,
development has been made in several countries, car manufacturers have already marketed their semi-self-driven automobiles. Nowadays
artificial intelligence is present across nearly all industries due to scientific achievements in the field of artificial neural
networks, computer vision, and a multi layer neural network. Utilizing AI for developing autonomous vehicles has been an obvious
choice as making decisions based on continuously flowing vast amount of information from different sensors requires fast processing.
In case of industrial AI where decision making is based on video image analysing, false decisions can lead to categorizing either
flawless products as faulty or wrong products as good. In case of human politics when artificial intelligence is used to determine
tender winners, making the wrong call could only mean gender biased results. However in case of self-driven cars making bad decision
might equal causing accidents and endangering people's lives, such as it happened to Uber. Scientists at MIT successfully developed
the World's first psychopath AI, which achievement claimed the responsibility of educating non-natural minds. The aim of this
article is to point out those situations and scenarios in which self-driven cars could be hijacked, misguided, captured, or even
influenced to turn against other vehicles. KEY WORDS CLASSIFICATION
