Claas has announced a new partnership with CertifAI to address the technical and regulatory challenges posed by the increased integration of artificial intelligence software.
CertifAI is a corporate joint venture supported by PwC, DEKRA, and the City of Hamburg, and offers AI testing and certification, which Claas believes will aid the development of new features.
The company has already tested the existing developments from Claas and devised a secure development process, according to Dr.-Ing. Torben Töniges, head of AI/analytics products at Claas.
“At Claas we are committed to ensuring that our agricultural machines conform to the highest development standards. Our collaboration with CertifAI will enable us to deepen this commitment in future.
“Quality has underpinned our value proposition for over 100 years. The testing and certification of our AI applications is key to upholding this promise in an AI-driven future.”
Dr Robert Kilian, CEO of CertifAI, adds: “We are proud to support Claas in the development of its AI solutions. AI testing and compliance with regulatory and technical requirements are not just statutory requirements for companies; they also provide a competitive advantage by ensuring that all customers can put their trust in the safety and quality of AI products.”
