The aerospace industry has historically been known for its technological innovation and rigorous safety standards, and could lead the way when adopting artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance operations, drive efficiencies, and push the boundaries of exploration. However, as AI systems become more integrated into aerospace applications, the need for responsible AI practices has never been more critical. So far, in 2024, the landscape of responsible AI in the aerospace industry is shaped by global regulatory efforts, ethical considerations, and a concerted push by industry leaders to ensure that AI technologies are developed and deployed in a manner that prioritizes safety, transparency, and accountability.
