A Survey of Proposed Standards and Regulations for Artificial Intelligence
Over the last decade, the interest in machine learning and artificial intelligence (A.I) has grown exponentially. Researchers across several industries have explored and proposed uses of machine learning that have the potential to exponentially improve automation, efficiency, etc. The nuclear industry is no exception, with several studies exploring applications in almost every aspect of the field. However, these developments have brought forth a number of concerns. Government officials, industry leaders and many others have called for new regulations to govern the development and implementation of A.I systems. In order for machine learning and A.I to be viable for nuclear applications, there will need to be great regulatory oversight. The purpose of this study is to examine current and proposed regulations that relate to machine learning and provide recommendations for future regulations, specifically for nuclear applications.
