Based on feedback from the previous edition of this workshop, we intend to use a similar format of the workshop as to the 2025 and the 2023 editions, proposing sessions with the presentation of talks by invited speakers followed by discussion. We feel that the work in this area has matured and now, there are already some interesting experiences in projects and initiatives using RE for AI. Moreover, important implementation steps of the EU AI Act are planned in 2025, such as the prohibitions on certain AI systems in February 2025.
Thus, having invited speakers share their experience in their projects seems like an appropriate way to move forward, giving us a chance to deepen our debate around the issues and opportunities in this area, as well as potential impacts of the EU AI Act on their projects.
We propose that invited speakers elaborate on their experience with RE4AI, considering the following questions: How is RE for AI systems different from RE of non-AI systems? How does RE research position w.r.t. studies in other research areas, such as, for example, in AI systems verification and testing? In other words, how does RE research contribute? How is RE research influenced by contributions from these other research areas?Â
