A one-hour webinar on a timely question: can AI-based tools really be qualified in the sense of ISO 26262?
ISO 26262 requires qualifying software tools that could introduce or mask errors in safety-critical automotive development. The arrival of AI-based tools raises the question of whether this framework still applies.
The webinar examines what “qualifying a tool” means under the standard, the specific challenges posed by AI components (determinism, reproducibility, traceability), and seeks to tell what is achievable from what is wishful thinking.
A useful session for automotive teams and any organization dealing with the integration of AI tools into a development pipeline subject to certification.
Original title: « ISO 26262 Tool Qualification for AI Tools — Feasible or Wishful Thinking? ». Full program and practical information on the official event page.
