A Framework for Component Selection Considering Dark Sides of Artificial Intelligence: A Case Study on Autonomous Vehicle

Abstract

Nowadays, intelligent systems play an important role in a wide range of applications, including financial ones, smart cities, healthcare, and transportation. Most of the intelligent systems are composed of prefabricated components. Inappropriate composition of components may lead to unsafe, power-consuming, and vulnerable intelligent systems. Although artificial intelligence-based systems can provide various advantages for humanity, they have several dark sides that can affect our lives. Some terms, such as security, trust, privacy, safety, and fairness, relate to the dark sides of artificial intelligence, which may be inherent to the intelligent systems. Existing solutions either focus on solving a specific problem or consider the some other challenge without addressing the fundamental issues of artificial intelligence. In other words, there is no general framework to conduct a component selection process while considering the dark sides in the literature. Hence, in this paper, we proposed a new framework for the component selection of intelligent systems while considering the dark sides of artificial intelligence. This framework consists of four phases, namely, component analyzing, extracting criteria and weighting, formulating the problem as multiple knapsacks, and finding components. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first component selection framework to deal with the dark sides of artificial intelligence. We also developed a case study for the component selection issue in autonomous vehicles to demonstrate the application of the proposed framework. Six components along with four criteria (i.e., energy consumption, security, privacy, and complexity) were analyzed and weighted by experts via analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method. The results clearly show that the appropriate composition of components was selected through the proposed framework for the desired functions.

Toward a Comprehensive Framework for Ensuring Security and Privacy in Artificial Intelligence

“…The framework has shown promising results regarding data protection, security, privacy, and biometric data quality in the facial recognition system. Robust policies and practices have been implemented to safeguard data used in AI model training [41]. Furthermore, the implementation of data encryption and access controls has provided an additional layer of security, protecting data both in transit and at rest [42].…”

Uncovering the Dark Side of Artificial Intelligence in Electronic Markets

“…Cheng et al (2021) uncovered both the bright and dark sides of AI by identifying two primary concerns: uncertainty and the invasion of privacy. In an extensive and comprehensive study on AI techniques, Jabbarpour et al (2021) found the following negative aspects: energy consumption, data issues, security and trust, privacy, fairness, safety, predictability, explainability, complexity, monopoly, and responsibility.…”

Artificial Intelligence Approaches and Mechanisms for Big Data Analytics: A Systematic Study

“…Many articles in the literature such as [1,2] only focus on the extraordinary ability of intelligence. A few articles (such as those published in [3][4][5][6][7]) focus on cognitive problems. When analyzing intelligence problems, the literature includes security [8], security [9], integrity [10], fire electricity [11] and ethics [12] etc.…”
