Abstract
The aim of this article is to identify potential areas for AI use in the maritime economy and examine if they are implemented in business. After literature review, the level of implementation of AI solutions was assessed based on a survey distributed between industry representatives. According to the results, the use of the term of AI is often overused, as it tends to be limited to digitalization as well as AI solutions currently support mostly common tasks, and their application to complex decision-making problems is still in the testing phase.
