Proposal to add guidance on Artificial Intelligence in the context of road vehicles. GRVA drafted a resolution addressing AI in wheeled vehicles, organized two workshops, reviewed definitions, and identified considerations on data management. The guidance recommends that industry shall not issue software updates significantly modifying certified functions without resuming certification procedures, that trained AI-systems be validated by authorized parties and assessed for safety, security, and environmental performance before deployment, and that data protection and privacy regulations be fully respected. Annex 1 provides simplified definitions of AI-based systems and related terms for vehicle regulations context.

This document provides considerations on Artificial Intelligence in the context of road vehicles, adopted by WP.29 in June 2024 based on ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2024/34/Rev.1 as amended by Annex VI of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1179. It includes definitions of AI-based systems used in automotive products, an overview of AI use cases provided by Industry, and interactions of AI-related principles with the New Assessment Test Methods. The document recommends that AI-based algorithms be implemented considering safety, security, environmental performance and societal impacts; that software updates from AI functionality shall not significantly modify certified functions without resuming certification; that AI systems be validated and assessed before deployment; and that data protection regulations be respected.
