Towards trustworthy AI in the public transport domain

In the context of rapidly evolving urban landscapes, the demand for enhanced mobility services has become increasingly critical. Traditional transportation systems struggle to keep pace with the growing complexity of commuting patterns and the diverse needs of urban residents. While AI can play a strong role in addressing these emerging demands, a parallel need for trustworthy services is also arising, which must be adequately met to ultimately provide equitable and ethical services to society. Based on these considerations, we explore the relevant dimensions of AI trustworthiness and propose how they can be transferred and demonstrated in a large-scale pilot focused on public transportation and exploiting advanced visual analytics paradigms based on pervasive computing. To this end, we present the FAITH risk management framework, ongoing activities, and preliminary results towards its implementation in the pilot project.
