The principle "Ethically Aligned Design (v2): General Principles" has mentioned the topic "safety" in the following places:

    1. Principle 1 — Human Rights

    To best honor human rights, society must assure the safety and security of A IS so that they are designed and operated in a way that benefits humans:

    4. Principle 4 — Transparency

    Develop new standards* that describe measurable, testable levels of transparency, so that systems can be objectively assessed and levels of compliance determined.

    4. Principle 4 — Transparency

    (The mechanisms by which transparency is provided will vary significantly, for instance 1) for users of care or domestic robots, a why did you do that button which, when pressed, causes the robot to explain the action it just took, 2) for validation or certification agencies, the algorithms underlying the A IS and how they have been verified, and 3) for accident investigators, secure storage of sensor and internal state data, comparable to a flight data recorder or black box.)

    5. Principle 5 — A IS Technology Misuse and Awareness of It

    Educating government, lawmakers, and enforcement agencies surrounding these issues so citizens work collaboratively with them to avoid fear or confusion (e.g., in the same way police officers have given public safety lectures in schools for years; in the near future they could provide workshops on safe A IS).
