The term AI Safety is particularly relevant in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Cybercrime and Cybersecurity, and Digital Society. It addresses the question of how artificial intelligence (AI) can be safely developed and deployed to prevent harm to people or businesses.
AI safety means that artificial intelligence systems are designed so that they do not perform unexpected or dangerous actions. Precisely because AI is now taking over many tasks independently, it is important that these systems remain reliable, predictable, and controllable.
A vivid example: Imagine a self-driving car. For this car to avoid causing accidents or making wrong decisions in road traffic, the AI developers must ensure that the system always operates safely – even when unusual situations arise. This falls under AI Safety.
AI Safety is crucial for businesses and society to build trust in new technologies and minimise risks from the outset. Those who invest in AI Safety early on will not only protect themselves but also customers and partners from unpleasant surprises caused by faulty or misused AI applications.
