Artificial intelligence in the maritime industry Mark explained that Lloyd’s Register has just published a report, called ‘Artificial Intelligence in Maritime – a learning curve. This paper concludes that artificial intelligence adoption in the maritime industry is still at an early stage, but is increasing rapidly in terms of both investment and knowledge. ‘Artificial intelligence as a term means a lot of things to different people: many terms are bandied around, including machine learning, neural networks, knowledge, knowledge-based systems, and digital twins.

He asked: What is data? Why do we need it? What are we going to use it for? Reactive or Proactive Approach – which is best? Are the airline and medical industries proactive? Andy says not. Something happens, an airline or medical disaster, and there is a reactive response to try and solve it. The industries put in immediate responses, investigate any data available, then try to work out both the root cause and potential solutions. Andy noted that the maritime industry has always taken the same approach: looked at significant incidents that have occurred; then investigated them to try to work out the root causes. Sometimes this information is shared with the wider industry, to try and ensure it doesn’t happen again. So why have these industries always been reactive and n
