A bank uses an AI system to approve credit card transactions in real time. The system has been in production for a year. Recently, a fraudster discovered that by adding a specific pattern of small transactions, they can cause the system to approve a large fraudulent transaction. This is an example of which type of safety risk?

Adversarial attack exploiting the model's decision boundary.

Unintended behavior due to concept drift.

Lack of robustness to noisy data.

System failure due to hardware malfunction.

A European company is developing an AI system that will be used in medical diagnostics. The system will process patient data. The company wants to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards and regulations. Which action is most important for the company to take?

Ensure the AI system is trained on a diverse dataset to avoid bias.

Publish the AI system's source code to ensure transparency.

Obtain ISO 9001 certification for the development process.

Conduct a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) and ensure the system meets the requirements of the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR).

Which of the following is a regulatory framework that addresses the safety and trustworthiness of AI systems in the European Union?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

Which of the following is an example of a functional safety requirement for an AI-based system?

The system shall maintain its accuracy when subjected to noisy sensor data.

The system shall respond to user input within 2 seconds.
