AIM AND SCOPE
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotics were strongly connected in the early days of AI, but have since diverged. One of the early goals of AI consisted of building embodied intelligent systems. Such a goal however has shown to be quite challenging, and researchers have isolated its many distinct facets and focused on making progress on each facet separately; this has resulted in AI and Robotics developing as divergent research lines, with little in the way of cross-pollination of ideas. With advancements in both fields, there is now a renewed interest in bringing the two disciplines closer together, towards the establishment of a distinct trend in integrated AI and Robotics. AI in smart cities is going to play big role in making urbanization smarter aim to be sustainable growth making the cities equipped with advance features to live, walk, shop and enjoy a safe and more convenient life in such environment.
With the increased responsibility of AI and robotics in the workplace comes the increased risk of a cyberattack. Cyber criminals, who either find an open window in the cloud and hack into the pepper robots or sink the financial markets, are certainly the most concerning risk. For businesses facing this criminal threat in the future, the consequences of a cyberattack could be devastating. Not only are companies subject to direct financial losses, but they are also liable for monetary penalties if their data protection methods fail to comply with legislation. This book brings together the state of the art and practice of the emergent field of integrated AI and Robotics for cybersecurity and critical infrastructure in smart cities, and highlights the key areas along which this current evolution of machine intelligence is heading.
