Artificial Intelligence: Risk, tool and decision-maker
AI is fundamental to how automated vehicles perceive their environment and make driving decisions. At the same time, insurers will increasingly use AI to interpret the data those vehicles generate.
AI may therefore be both part of the insured risk and part of the insurer's response to it.
It can structure vast datasets and identify patterns, but also raises questions around explainability, reliability and accountability. Generative AI can, meanwhile, help manufacture convincing false evidence.
$49billion
The AI market specifically tailored for self driving cars is set to surpass $49 billion by 2030.
