#60 Manned to AI Ships Era (iota/2) - Artificial intelligence controlled ships era

-

In 1980’s distinction between Weak AI (idea that machines could act as if they were intelligent) and Strong AI (machines that do so are actually consciously thinking)- overtime definition shifted to Strong to Human Level AI. 

Turning Test: The test for machines which passed behavioral test. This leads to make many technologies based useful tools.

Ethics of AI: AI is a powerful technology, we have moral obligations to use it well in a positive aspect such as improved medical diagnosis, medical discoveries, better prediction of extreme weather events, self-driving automated cars, crisis counseling, new fact checking, suicide prevention, measurement of fossil fuel emissions. 

Recently, The Supreme Court of India and the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT M) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aiming at facilitating the digital transformation of the Indian judiciary. Through this partnership, IIT Madras will utilize Artificial Intelligence (AI) and emerging technologies in day-to-day proceedings of the Supreme Court.

In the MASS (Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship) era the Drones and Robotics will be used for Fire Fighting

As well as Maritime Cyber security will also be a challenging one with respect to pirates…

Helmet : The most important part of the human body is the head. It needs utmost protection which is provided by a hard plastic helmet on the ship. A chin strap is also provided with the helmet which k...

#68 MANNED SHIPS ERA TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CONTROLLED SHIPS ERA (iota-4)

 Differences between IT and OT systems Whereas IT systems manage data and support business functions, OT is the hardware and software that directly monitors/controls physical devices and processes and as such are an integral part of the ship and must function independently of the IT systems onboard. The systems can, however, be connected to the IT network for performance monitoring, remote support etc. Such systems are sometimes referred to as belonging to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). There may be important differences between who handles the purchase and management of the OT systems versus IT systems on a ship. IT managers are not usually involved in the purchase of OT systems and may or may not have a thorough understanding of cyber security. The purchase of such systems should involve someone, who knows about the impact on the onboard systems but will most probably only have limited knowledge of software and cyber risk management. IT covers the...

#41 Maritime Cybersecurity

Maritime is one of the oldest industries and lifeblood of the global economy, accounting for the carriage of 90% of world trade. Ships and other vessels may seem like unusual targets for cyberattacks. But with their growing use of industrial control systems (ICS) and satellite communications, hackers have a new playground that’s ripe for attack. In a 2020 Safety at Sea and BIMCO Maritime Cyber Security survey, despite the majority of respondents (77%) viewing cyber-attacks as a high or medium risk to their organizations, few appear to be prepared for the aftermath of such an attack, 64% of respondents said their organization has a business continuity plan in place to follow in the event of a cyber incident, but only 24% claimed it was tested every three months, and only 15% said that it was tested every six to 12 months. Only 42% of respondents said that their organization protects vessels from operational technology (OT) cyber threats, and some respondents went so far as to describe...
