The Israeli Physical AI Ecosystem
123 companies, $12B funded — where the safety substrate actually sits

What is Physical AI Safety?
Physical AI Safety is the discipline of designing and assuring the safety of physical AI systems — robots, autonomous vehicles, and other machine-learning-driven machines that act in the physical world — at assurance levels comparable to established functional safety. It bridges three traditions, AI Safety, Functional Safety, and Robot Safety, none of which, alone, addresses the failure modes that arise when machine-learning components drive physical actuators.
