It is orthogonal, yes. To your question, I have an example from the same domain, where it is reasonable to mix unrolling panic with code that never panics. Typically, safety-related processes are set up in two phases. First they set up, the

As the author mentions, `panic!` is also not an acceptable failure mode in some applications. If you're developing safety-critical software and a process stopping is part of your risk analysis, many frameworks will ask you about the f

That is explicitly addressed by the regulation. If an AI product is used in a way you describe it, there need to be measures put in place to reduce the risk to an acceptable level. If these measures are missing, it cannot even be put into s

The "high risk" list, though, is essentially traditional safety functions (article 6) and functions that affect fundamental rights and access to basic services (annex III)? It's not that broad at all either.

The law specifically refers to putting a product in to service or placing a product on the market if they are on the prohibited (article 5) or high-risk (article 6, annex III) list and don't have an applicable exception. IANAL, but it&

I'd love to see this realized. However, given the issues we've been having with cables in the Baltic Sea in recent months, this would probably be a huge attack surface in case of any kind of conflict.

Here it's more the other way around. CERN needs a data analysis framework, so CERN develops, maintains and publishes it for other users. That being said, I don't know whether it's actually a good idea for someone external to
