Who Signs Off When AI Triages an Airworthiness Directive
Agentic AI is entering AD and SB processing in MRO, raising a hard question about audit trails and accountability under FAA and EASA continued airworthiness rules.

Agentic AI breaks the deterministic testing model behind DO-178C, and the same structural gap is emerging across ISO 42001, EU AI Act, and FDA regimes.
Industrial operators are handing agentic AI direct control authority faster than monitoring tools can verify it, and buyers need a risk tier to tell the two apart.
Agentic AI is moving into aerospace design and engineering tooling, but DO-330 tool qualification still governs whether any of that verification counts.
Ono Pharmaceutical's rollout of agentic AI to every discovery scientist exposes a governance gap that sits upstream of any device or wearable regulation.
Drone swarms and other agentic systems are entering aviation and defense procurement faster than security testing methods built for passive software can assess them.
Certification and model health monitoring both fall short of testing whether an agent's decision loop can be manipulated before it acts.
Zero-miss safety trials and closed-loop agents are pushing plant leaders to decide how much autonomy AI gets inside existing quality and safety systems.
Regulators are drafting kill switches for frontier AI while agentic dispatch systems already run unaudited energy and battery decisions in production.
Regulatory frameworks are expanding toward AI in drug development, but the real exposure is a silent-failure risk that neither hype skeptics nor regulators are pricing in yet.
For agentic AI in energy and industrial control, liability exposure is set by vendor technical standards and contract terms, not by which government's AI regime is more mature.
NADEC's ISO 42001 certification gives industrial AI buyers a reference point, but one certificate does not settle whether the standard closes the gap between documented control and operational reality.
