AI components: Technology, Validation, Liability, and Solutions for ADAS/AI

AI components are a powerful new capability which is the center of ADAS and AV solutions. However, AI components present significant challenges in the domain of validation and verification. Without a clear methodology to handle AI components, ADAS/AV solutions introduce significant legal liability to product developers. This presentation will present the history of AI components, the V&V challenges, the impact on ADAS/AV legal liability, and structural pathways towards successful integration. Without a comprehensive approach to AI components, the ultimate value for functionality such as ADAS is limited, but with reasonable solutions, the value perceived by customers rises rapidly.
