On Safety Assessment of Artificial Intelligence
In this paper we discuss how systems with Artificial Intelligence (AI) can
undergo safety assessment. This is relevant, if AI is used in safety related
applications. Taking a deeper look into AI models, we show, that many models of
artificial intelligence, in particular machine learning, are statistical
models. Safety assessment would then have t o concentrate on the model that is
used in AI, besides the normal assessment procedure. Part of the budget of
dangerous random failures for the relevant safety integrity level needs to be
used for the probabilistic faulty behavior of the AI system. We demonstrate our
thoughts with a simple example and propose a research challenge that may be
decisive for the use of AI in safety related systems.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figure
