Explainable AI and Society
an interdisciplinary, hybrid lecture series
Modern AI can be used to drive cars, to decide on loans, or to detect cancer. Yet, the inner workings of many AI systems remain hidden – even to experts. Given the crucial role that AI systems play in modern society, this seems unacceptable. But how can we make complex, self-learning systems explainable? What kinds of explanations are we looking for when demanding that AI must be explainable? And which societal, ethical and legal desiderata can actually be satisfied via explainability?
Important update: Due to the rail strike, the talk by Daniel Neider can be attended online only via Zoom.
