商品描述

This book offers a unique and timely contribution to the intersection of agentic AI, reliability engineering, and system trustworthiness. This book addresses both sides of the reliability challenge: how to ensure the reliability of agentic AI systems (with autonomy, planning, and goal-directed behavior), and how agentic AI can be used to enhance the reliability of critical infrastructure and industrial systems (e.g., energy, transportation, manufacturing). It introduces a layered architectural framework that connects technical design (models, execution, cognition) with system-level trust and explainability. This book outlines how awareness and transparency can be engineered into each layer, supporting dependable human-AI collaboration. Beyond technical detail, the book helps researchers, practitioners, and policymakers understand both the barriers and enabling factors for adopting agentic AI in real-world reliability-critical domains. It draws on examples from sectors like power systems, autonomous transportation, and predictive maintenance. This book includes a survey and critical analysis of the current state of regulatory frameworks and standards organizations (e.g., IEEE, ISO, EU AI Act), highlighting gaps and aligning recommendations with the evolving compliance landscape. This book provides an interdisciplinary bridge between AI development, systems reliability engineering, and AI policy/ethics communities--making it relevant for a wide audience across academia, industry, and regulatory bodies.

本書對於代理式人工智慧、可靠性工程和系統可信度的交集提供了獨特且及時的貢獻。本書探討了可靠性挑戰的兩個方面:如何確保代理式人工智慧系統(具備自主性、規劃和目標導向行為)的可靠性,以及如何利用代理式人工智慧來增強關鍵基礎設施和工業系統(例如,能源、交通、製造)的可靠性。它介紹了一個分層架構框架,將技術設計(模型、執行、認知)與系統層級的信任和可解釋性連接起來。本書概述了如何在每一層中設計意識和透明度,以支持可靠的人機協作。除了技術細節外,本書還幫助研究人員、實務工作者和政策制定者理解在現實世界中採用代理式人工智慧於可靠性關鍵領域的障礙和促成因素。它引用了來自電力系統、自主交通和預測性維護等領域的例子。本書包括對當前監管框架和標準組織(例如,IEEE、ISO、歐盟人工智慧法案)的調查和批判性分析,突顯出差距並將建議與不斷演變的合規環境對齊。本書提供了一個跨學科的橋樑,連接人工智慧開發、系統可靠性工程和人工智慧政策/倫理社群,使其對學術界、產業界和監管機構的廣泛受眾具有相關性。
