AI and Functional Safety: Navigating AI in Safety-Critical Software Development

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into software development, its presence in safety-critical applications is raising new challenges for functional safety and regulatory compliance. Traditional standards and deterministic processes used to verify and validate safety-critical systems often fall short when applied to AI models, which are inherently non-deterministic and continuously evolving.

This webinar, led by Jill Britton, Director of Compliance at Perforce and MISRA working group member, explores the paradigm shift required to ensure AI-enabled systems are safe, secure, and robust. Attendees will gain insights into:

• The limitations of current functional safety standards when applied to AI.
• How AI’s role—whether in development, tooling, or deployed in the field—affects safety validation strategies.
• Emerging standards such as ISO 21448 (SOTIF), ISO/DPAS 8800, and ISO/IEC TR 5469, and their requirements for AI system design and verification.
• International regulatory efforts including the EU AI Act.

Whether you're developing AI applications for automotive, aerospace, medical devices, or industrial systems, this session will help you understand the evolving landscape of functional safety and how to adapt your processes to meet new expectations.
