This Technical Report was developed to incorporate the emergence of AI (Artificial Intelligence) techniques with established functional safety methodologies. Functional safety terminology used in this B11.TR10 was primarily selected to complement other ANSI B11 American National Standards. The writing subcommittee of this Technical Report realizes that AI methodologies are expected, and will continue, to evolve. The “requirements” herein were written to be robust enough to apply to future applications, with the numerous Informative Notes providing examples of ways it could be achieved using current methods.
