🎉 Excited to join the expert panel at the QUARE workshop at @Recsys and take deep dives on how to balance user needs + organizational objectives in #XAI.

🎁 Glad to see cross-pollination from the Human-centered XAI (#HCXAI) workshop at CHI 🔥

🏆 Props to organizers for increasing accessibility by making the WS virtual. I was fearful I'd need to cancel, but Paxlovid kicked in just in time to join virtually. In-person would've been impossible.

Explainable AI (XAI) folks, looking for pointers to the biggest failures of popular techniques.

E.g., saliency maps not working for doctors.

Papers, articles, blogs == all fair game.

"Musk has been critical of OpenAI, a company he helped co-found in 2015. The billionaire claimed that OpenAI is “training AI to be woke""
In case it wasn't clear what #xAI will be about...

Last was a packed session at @FAccT on the limits of #AI explainability. I particularly liked Tim Miller on hypothesis-driven decision support using AI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl7Hdz40d24 (10/10) #FAccT2023 #XAI

While we justifiably fight about opaque algorithms, there's a more sinister opacity -- whether an algorithm exists in the first place. But the solution isn't just making things "transparent". 🤯

💯 Next to bad algorithms in law enforcement, the next most sinister one that undoubtedly touches almost everyone are algorithms around housing.

💡 Often people aren't even aware there's an algorithm pulling the strings behind the scene.

#AI #GenerativeAI #SocialMedia #Twitter #Musk #xAI: "Elon Musk will use Twitter data to build and train an AI to counter ChatGPT.

He mentioned the plan during a Friday Twitter Spaces discussion that shared more details about his plans for xAI, his newest startup.

"Every organization doing AI, large and small, has used Twitter’s data for training, basically in all cases illegally,” he said, later adding: "We had multiple entities scraping every tweet ever made, and trying to do so in a span of days."

Twitter recently imposed rate limits to prevent companies from scraping data from the platform. However, Musk plans on opening up the tweet access for xAI. “We will use the public tweets —obviously not anything private— for training as well just like everyone else has,” he said."

Asked #BingChat (creative) this somewhat ambiguous prompt: "Write a nursery rhyme about Musk training his AI using everyone's tweets"

What is using everyone's tweets? The writing of the nursery rhyme or the training of the AI?

The #chatbot resolved the ambiguity but #OpenAI's #LargeLanguageModels as deployed by #Microsoft continue to exhibit an anti-super-rich bias

AI Transparency? AI Explainability?

Are they the same? Different? It's confusing!

While they're used interchangeably, my practical hack is:

🎯 Transparency is a state of being

💡 Explainability is what you *do* with it

#XAI #AI #ML #mastodon #academia

First was a nice slate of talks at @FAccT on algorithmic transparency. I particularly liked @@narrdev's talk on the moral grounding for transparent #AI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMs-EV3r1gc (2/5) #FAccT2023 #XAI

そう言う理由だったのね。…ってか本当クソオブクソだね。
