In recent years, artificial intelligence has had a tremendous impact on every field, and several definitions of its different types have been provided. In the literature, most articles focus on the extraordinary capabilities of artificial intelligence. Recently, some challenges such as security, safety, fairness, robustness, and energy consumption have been reported during the development of intelligent systems. As the usage of intelligent systems increases, the number of new challenges increases. Obviously, during the evolution of artificial narrow intelligence to artificial super intelligence, the viewpoint on the challenges such as security will be changed. In addition, the recent development of human-level intelligence cannot appropriately happen without considering whole challenges in designing intelligent systems. Considering the mentioned situation, no study in the literature summarizes the challenges in designing artificial intelligence. In this paper, a review of the challenges is presented. Then, some important research questions about the future dynamism of challenges and their relationships are answered.
Planning of optimal/shortest path is required for proper operation of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). Although most of the existing approaches provide proper path planning strategy, they cannot guarantee reduction of consumed energy by UGVs, which is provided via onboard battery with constraint power. Hence, in this paper, a new ant-based path planning approach that considers UGV energy consumption in its planning strategy is proposed. This method is called Green Ant (G-Ant) and integrates an ant-based algorithm with a power/energy consumption prediction model to reach its main goal, which is providing a collision-free shortest path with low power consumption. G-Ant is evaluated and validated via simulation tools. Its performance is compared with ant colony optimization, genetic algorithm, and particle swarm optimization approaches. Various scenarios were simulated to evaluate G-Ant performance in terms of UGV travel time, travel length, computational time by taking into account different numbers of iterations, different numbers of obstacle, and different population sizes. The obtained results show that the G-Ant outperforms the existing methods in terms of travel length and number of iteration.
