Carnegie-Mellon Universitys Software Engineering Institute has conducted a study to look at the potential threats posed by autonomous transport systems, machine learning and smart devices in general. The Emerging Technology Domains Risk Survey is at its third iteration as part of an effort to aid the US Department of Homeland Security’s US-CERT to identify vulnerabilities, promote good security practices, and understand vulnerability risk, the team says. Many of the study’s predictions are on par with Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s biggest fears about the future of autonomy and artificial intelligence.”]
