Can AI really be trusted to produce a credible risk study?
In this episode, we explore one of the most important questions facing safety professionals today — the role of Artificial Intelligence in risk assessment, HAZOP studies, and safety-critical decision-making.
As AI tools become more accessible, the conversation is quickly shifting from “Can we use AI?” to “Should we trust it?”
We unpack what makes a risk study truly credible, where AI is already adding value, and where human expertise remains essential. This is a grounded, practical discussion — not hype — focused on real-world application in high-risk environments.
If you work in EHS, engineering, or operations, this episode will challenge how you think about both risk and intelligence.
In this episode, we discuss:
- What defines a “credible” risk study
- The role of AI in HAZOP and hazard identification
- Where AI can support decision-making today
- The limitations and risks of relying on AI
- The future of AI in safety and risk management
