>An algorithm that explains ... isn't any more moral
Not sure what "moral" means, but two things:
1. If black boxes make unexplainable decisions, that gives too much power to the person who reads the box's answer,
2. If the child services algorithm explained its prediction involved e.g. alcoholism, then the parents could try to quit.
- xherberta 9y agoUnfortunately, you can't quit alcoholism. Also troubling: what if the child service algo happens to predict that brown families are more abusive?
