About this event
A session on how AI and machine learning can become core components in safety-critical systems and how traditional functional safety standards like IEC 61508 relate.
Who should attend
If you're working at the intersection of AI and safety, this session is built for the questions you're already dealing with. - **You design, build, or validate safety-critical systems** and need a clearer view of how AI and machine learning can be used as core components without treating safety as an afterthought. - **You work in robotics** and want to understand how emerging guidance like **ISO/IEC TS 22440** connects to the realities of deploying intelligent behavior in systems that must perform safely and predictably. - **You’re responsible for functional safety, assurance, or compliance** and need to map newer AI concepts to established standards such as **IEC 61508**. - **You lead engineering or technical product decisions** and want practical insight into what certification-oriented thinking means for AI-enabled products before it becomes a late-stage problem. - **You’re a systems engineer, software engineer, researcher, or technical manager** looking for a more grounded understanding of where traditional safety frameworks fit, where they fall short, and what this standard is trying to clarify. - **You want substance, not hype**—a focused discussion of how AI can be treated in safety-critical contexts and what that means for real-world development and assessment.
