   In the context of safety assurance, what is the purpose of runtime monitoring in an AI-based system?

   • ATo replace the need for comprehensive testing during development.
   • BTo continuously check the system's behavior and trigger corrective actions if unsafe conditions are detected.
   • CTo improve the model's accuracy by feeding it new data during operation.
   • DTo verify the system's safety properties before deployment.

   An AI system is used to predict when industrial machinery needs maintenance. The system sometimes fails to predict failures, leading to unexpected downtime. The company wants to specify safety requirements for this system. Which requirement is most appropriate?

   • AThe system must predict failures at least 24 hours in advance with a minimum accuracy of 90%.
   • BThe system must be available 99.9% of the time.
   • CThe system must be able to explain its predictions.
   • DThe system must be secure against cyber attacks.

   An AI system is used to control a self-driving car. The system has been tested extensively, but there is a rare scenario where it fails to stop for a pedestrian. The safety team is considering adding a redundant system that uses a different sensor modality (e.g., radar instead of camera). Which statement best describes the benefit of this approach?

   • AThe redundant system will completely eliminate the risk of failure.
   • BThe redundant system can catch failures in the primary system, but it may also have its own failure modes.
   • CThe redundant system will be more reliable than the primary system, so it can be used as the sole system.
   • DThe redundant system is unnecessary because the primary system has been tested extensively.
