Hybrid
lecture series: Explainable AI and Society, Vol. 2
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. This is
socially 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?
With the
second installment of our hybrid, interdisciplinary lecture
series, we will continue to explore the potentials of and
questions within the rising field of Explainable Artificial
Intelligence (XAI). The lectures can be attended both online
and on campus in Saarbrücken. For further information and
