The problem is that in many cases (especially with deep learning), "the algorithm" is essentially a black box. There often isn't a straightforward way to determine exactly what the algorithm is actually learning.
- simion314 8y agoI know that too, but if I(or the community) have access to it I can prove the algorithms is flawed. Say i change a bit the input and notice a huge output, like I change my non enlgish name to an english name and by magic my score triples then I prove the algorithm is discriminating me(same if I change my birth place or address). I don't think that opening the algorithms is a sufficient condition but I think is necessary.
