Summary: | Developments of artificial intelligence for autonomous vehicles promise better commuting experiences.
However, current limitations of artificial intelligence signal some risks associated with
autonomous vehicle use. Based on the trajectory of artificial intelligence development, technology
developers and the public would develop mental models of risks and benefits of artificial
intelligence in autonomous vehicles. Mapping drivers’, non-drivers’, and technology developers’
mental models, this study found two broad themes: technological attributes and implications of
autonomous vehicle use. Specifically, there are environmental, economic, personal, and societal dimensions
of implications. Benefits associated with prospective introductions of autonomous
vehicle-enabled transport services is a key similarity among all mental models. Notable differences
occur between the technological and societal dimensions of mental models of risks. The
results are based on seven focus group discussions with drivers, non-drivers, and technology
developers in Singapore. |
