Ok, fair point. So I guess whereas one could argue the explainability problem away, the predictability of failure modes is non-negotiable.

- TeMPOraL 7y agoPerhaps, but explainability is very helpful for predictability - it allows us to do better than just making statistical inferences from observed behaviour. Since ML models, unlike biology, are entirely our design, we have an opportunity to make them explainable and reap the benefits in terms of predictability.
