论文摘要
欧洲委员会最近提出了《 AI法案》，以规范欧盟的AI使用，尤其是在高风险应用程序中，即旨在用作道路交通管理和运营以及水，天然气，供暖和电力的安全组件。另一方面，IEC 61508是安全至关重要的电子组件的国际标准之一，似乎主要禁止在此类系统中使用AI。鉴于IEC 61508与拟议的AI法案之间的这种冲突，这也是因为IEC 61508不是统一的欧洲标准，因此本文我们研究并分析了《 AI法案》生效后的行业将发生的事情。特别是，我们专注于拟议的AI法案如何通过允许在以前被禁止的行业中使用AI来对关键基础设施的可持续性产生积极影响。为此，我们提供了属于IEC 61508保护的基于AI的解决方案的几个例子，这些解决方案可能会对可持续性产生积极影响，这与欧盟当前的长期目标以及联合国的可持续发展目标（即负担得起且清洁的能源，可持续性，可持续性城市，城市和社区）产生了积极影响。
The AI Act has been recently proposed by the European Commission to regulate the use of AI in the EU, especially on high-risk applications, i.e. systems intended to be used as safety components in the management and operation of road traffic and the supply of water, gas, heating and electricity. On the other hand, IEC 61508, one of the most adopted international standards for safety-critical electronic components, seem to mostly forbid the use of AI in such systems. Given this conflict between IEC 61508 and the proposed AI Act, also stressed by the fact that IEC 61508 is not an harmonised European standard, with the present paper we study and analyse what is going to happen to industry after the entry into force of the AI Act. In particular, we focus on how the proposed AI Act might positively impact on the sustainability of critical infrastructures by allowing the use of AI on an industry where it was previously forbidden. To do so, we provide several examples of AI-based solutions falling under the umbrella of IEC 61508 that might have a positive impact on sustainability in alignment with the current long-term goals of the EU and the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, i.e., affordable and clean energy, sustainable cities and communities.
