Provided is an artificial intelligence system for providing road risk information and a method thereof. The system for providing road risk information includes: an information collection unit for receiving various road state information acquired from a vehicle device; an information processing unit for performing image processing on the collected road state information, and converting a result of the image processing into a predefined grayscale image; an information learning unit for learning the converted predefined grayscale image on the basis of a predetermined learning model based on deep learning, and recognizing the road risk information on the basis of a result of the learning; and an information classification unit for classifying the road risk information from the road state information on the basis of a result of the recognition, and detecting road surface defects on the basis of a result of the classification.
