This highlights the key trends across the sector and the expectations for AI in aerospace. To support this, we have also published our first horizon-scanning report for AI (For more see: bit.ly/3No6Xcp). This paper explores the trends relating to artificial intelligence to provide insights that feed into the CAAs development of our first Strategy for AI.
