AI Safety

Ethics & Safety

An area that deals with reducing the risks from errors, abuse, unpredictable behavior, and harmful effects of AI systems.

Definition

AI security covers technical, product and organizational measures. The system must not only respond well, but also not reveal data, not give dangerous instructions, not be fooled by simple attacks, and not perform risky actions without control. For autonomous agents, security becomes especially important.

Beispiel

The company is implementing an AI assistant and restricting access to client data, adding response verification and action logs.

Warum es wichtig ist

The term is important for choosing AI tools: “works beautifully” and “works safely in a real process” are two different things.

So funktioniert es

Wo es genutzt wird

  • corporate chatbots
