Dear all, On March 30, we are organising a roundtable on "Explainable AI and Scientific Research" with Lena Kästner, professor of philosophy, computer science, and artificial intelligence at the University of Bayreuth, Germany. The meeting will be held on Wednesday 30th of March from 2pm to 4 pm in Room D1.06, Sector D, first floor, Campus Est, USI-SUPSI, Lugano-Viganello. The discussion will focus on the consequences of using opaque AI models in scientific research and whether they can be countered through the use of explainable AI tools. The starting point will be the paper "Testing the Tools of Systems Neuroscience on Artificial Neural Networks” by Grace W.
