AI risks in Maritime Defence: MS candidate Julie Webeck and Dr. Biondi authored a report
“AI is everywhere; it has become ubiquitous for nearly every task, with millions of people relying on it more and more,” says lead author and master’s student in the Faculty of Human Kinetics Julie Webeck.
“Whether we are talking about cars or ships, the risks of overusing AI are similar — and in remote areas or in a military context, the implications can be even more serious.”
For the report, published recently by the Canadian Maritime Security Network, the researchers reviewed existing literature on maritime autonomy, including studies of real ferry operations, autonomous ferry trials, ship bridge simulations and interviews with navigators and system designers.
They found that AI can help improve maritime operations by analyzing large volumes of data, detecting unusual activity and coordinating with international partners.
