- What will the interface between man and machine on the digital factory floor look like in the future? VDE experts are working on answers to this question: They are compiling relevant design rules in an interdisciplinary manner and developing them further on the basis of concrete use cases.
- VDE Digital Technologies Practice Network) and German Society for Biomedical Engineering in VDE are bringing together all the relevant stakeholders: Together, we have just developed an orientation picture for the physician-technology symbiosis 2035. In the field of Ambient Assisted Living, we are also developing concepts for a constructive approach to AI.
- How can ethics in AI applications be defined and examined in concrete terms? How can this be done internationally without diluting our European values?
Together with other institutions, we have developed a labeling approach. In this way, we want to go beyond mere standardization or certification of processes - because this would only be effective to a limited extent. - How can the functional safety of AI systems be guaranteed that are self-learning and will therefore behave differently tomorrow than they do today?
Here, VDE is developing basic principles, for example in the area of image recognition, and testing approaches. - How can German industry, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, evaluate the potential of AI for themselves and introduce the right AI systems?
VDE is preparing matching mechanisms and curated information offerings to help with the first steps.

How will doctors and technology interact in the future? And what does that mean for healthcare?

In addition VDE is networked nationally and internationally: It provides the chairpersons in important European (CEN-CENELEC AI Focus Group) and international (IEC SEG 10) standardization bodies. It supports members of the Bundestag, federal ministries and the EU Commission with neutral expertise on AI. With concrete proposals, we bridge the gap between technical possibilities and societal needs. And last but not least, VDE is building consortia and tangible projects, for example to facilitate the pooling of training data for AI, especially for SMEs. To this end, we are cooperating with, among others, the German Federal Association for Artificial Intelligence, with our standardization colleagues at DIN, with numerous research institutions such as DFKI, and with thought leaders among AI providers and AI users.
