Do we need to specify and use bounded morality in system engineering to make AI-based systems more ethically aligned?... What is the status of existing approaches in ensuring AI and ML safety and what are the gaps?... In the last decade, there has been a growing concern on risks of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Safety is becoming increasingly relevant as humans are progressively ruled out from the decision/control loop of intelligent, and learning-enabled machines. In particular, the technical foundations and assumptions on which traditional safety engineering principles are based, are inadequate for systems in which AI algorithms, in particular Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, are interacting with the physical world at increasingly higher levels of autonomy. We must also consider the connection between the safety challenges posed by present-day AI systems, and more forward-looking research focused on more capable future AI systems, up to and including Artificial General..
