ABSTRACT

Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) equipped with AI hold transformative potential but raise significant privacy concerns, particularly in their interaction with infrastructure like Road Side Units (RSUs). The ability of AI to hide or leak sensitive information poses risks such as financial loss, compromised privacy, and social inequality. Although recent regulations like the EU AI Act, China's AI governance, and the USA’s Executive Order on AI address these issues, they need amendments to specifically cover AV privacy. This research explores these gaps, discusses the risks of using Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT in AVs, and provides guidelines for safe and responsible AV development.
