Embodied AI Safety
Reimagining Safety Engineering for Artificial Intelligence in Physical Systems
Book •
Phil Koopman's 'Embodied AI Safety' examines the unique safety challenges that arise when artificial intelligence controls physical systems, such as robots and autonomous vehicles.
The book explains how conventional software safety practices fall short for machine learning–based controllers and proposes engineering approaches to reason about, validate, and mitigate risks.
Koopman combines examples from industry incidents with practical guidance on architectures, testing, and operational practices to improve real-world safety.
The text is aimed at engineers, policymakers, and safety practitioners who must design and regulate embodied AI systems.
It emphasizes transparency, rigorous validation, and system-level thinking to reduce harm while enabling useful autonomy.
