    The technologies of a smart home and artificial intelligence (AI) are now inextricably linked. The perception and consideration of these technologies as a single system will make it possible to significantly simplify the approach to their study, design and implementation. The introduction of AI in managing the infrastructure of a smart home is a process of irreversible close future at the level with personal assistants and autopilots. It is extremely important to standardize, create and follow the typical models of information gathering and device management in a smart home, which should lead in the future to create a data analysis model and decision making through the software implementation of a specialized AI. AI techniques such as multi-agent systems, neural networks, fuzzy logic will form the basis for the functioning of a smart home in the future. The problems of diversity of data and models and the absence of centralized popular team decisions in this area significantly slow down further development. A big problem is a low percentage of open source data and code in the smart home and the AI when the research results are mostly unpublished and difficult to reproduce and implement independently. The proposed ways of finding solutions to models and standards can significantly accelerate the development of specialized AIs to manage a smart home and create an environment for the emergence of native innovative solutions based on analysis of data from sensors collected by monitoring systems of smart home. Particular attention should be paid to the search for resource savings and the profit from surpluses that will push for the development of these technologies and the transition from a level of prospect to technology exchange and the acquisition of benefits.The technologies of a smart home and artificial intelligence (AI) are now inextricably linked.

    The impact of artificial intelligence on sustainable corporate brand:a netnography study of tesla

    Abstract. The global market has become ever more turbulent due to digitalisation and digital transformation. Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a central role in moving forward the advance of technology. AI has become an important research field in marketing while various companies have successfully implemented AI technologies to meet customers’ needs. However, the impacts of AI on brands have not been widely explored in both scientific and managerial aspects. Brands generate values for businesses by providing functional and non-functional benefits that can be contributed by implementing AI technologies. Mainly, developing sustainability is crucial to address stakeholders’ concerns for today’s brands. The sustainable corporate brand can be a solution to this market demand as its promise has sustainability as a core value. Through exploring this phenomenon, the thesis answers the research question: to what extent does AI contribute positive impacts on sustainable corporate brands in the electric autonomous vehicle (EAVs) sector? The EAVs industry, represented by the case company, Tesla, is chosen for conducting this research because it integrates the variants of electric vehicles that provide environmental benefits and the autonomous cars that use AI technologies. The study is performed using the qualitative research method of netnography. The data are collected from the publicly available information on Twitter and Youtube based on their relevance to the research question. One hundred sixty tweets and thirteen Youtube videos are extracted in textual form and analysed following the guidelines of thematic analysis and triangulated with multiple sources of data. The key results of the research suggest the unique characteristics of the three AI features, machine learning, natural language processing (NLP) and Big Data analytics, help create the normative emotions and efficacy in the mind of stakeholders. These norms of emotions and efficacy further motivate stakeholders’ normative actions that, in return, enhance the normative emotions and efficacy in a loop. Five elements represent the values AI technologies contribute to brand promise through creating a unique experience for the stakeholders that differentiate the brand from its competitors. The refreshed excitements and trust are brought by machine learning technologies. The fun and human characteristics and safety are brought by NLP technologies. Technology superiority is made possible through Big Data analytics. Four elements act for the values conveyed by AI technologies that enrich and expand the brand identity. NLP features can effectively enhance the connections between the focal brand and the other brand associations: the CEO, the affiliate brands and meaningful cultural references. The shared ownership of the brand is intensified through the co-creation of Big Data analytics. By contributing to brand promise and brand identity, AI implementation helps foster positive impacts in building an authentic, emotionally charged, and behaviourally based sustainable corporate brand

    The Role of Trust and Interaction in GPS Related Accidents: A Human Factors Safety Assessment of the Global Positioning System (GPS)

    Get PDF
    The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a network of orbiting and geostationary satellites to calculate the position of a receiver over time. This technology has revolutionised a wide range of safety-critical industries and leisure applications ranging from commercial fisheries through to mountain running. These systems provide diverse benefits; supplementing the users existing navigation skills and reducing the uncertainty that often characterises many route planning tasks. GPS applications can also help to reduce workload by automating tasks that would otherwise require finite cognitive and perceptual resources. However, the operation of these systems has been identified as a contributory factor in a range of recent accidents. Users often come to rely on GPS applications and, therefore, fail to notice when they develop faults or when errors occur in the other systems that use the data from these systems. Further accidents can stem from the ‘over confidence’ that arises when users assume automated warnings will be issued when they stray from an intended route. Unless greater attention is paid to the human factors of GPS applications then there is a danger that we will see an increasing number of these failures as positioning technologies are integrated into increasing numbers of application

    The impact of cockpit automation on crew coordination and communication. Volume 1: Overview, LOFT evaluations, error severity, and questionnaire data

    The purpose was to examine, jointly, cockpit automation and social processes. Automation was varied by the choice of two radically different versions of the DC-9 series aircraft, the traditional DC-9-30, and the glass cockpit derivative, the MD-88. Airline pilot volunteers flew a mission in the simulator for these aircraft. Results show that the performance differences between the crews of the two aircraft were generally small, but where there were differences, they favored the DC-9. There were no criteria on which the MD-88 crews performed better than the DC-9 crews. Furthermore, DC-9 crews rated their own workload as lower than did the MD-88 pilots. There were no significant differences between the two aircraft types with respect to the severity of errors committed during the Line-Oriented Flight Training (LOFT) flight. The attitude questionnaires provided some interesting insights, but failed to distinguish between DC-9 and MD-88 crews
