Hi, as suggested, I’d like to leave a comment/question for today’s Webinar in advance. Here it is:
As far as I have noticed, IBM and its Watson crews have recently also empasized (or started to emphasize?) “Trust and Transparency for AI” [1]. IBM/Watson proposes or offers (or aims to offer?) the following plan:

  1. Automatically detect bias and analyze its source
  2. (Offer tools to) suggest mitigation strategies
  3. Offer Efficient end-to-end lineage services (whatever that means exactly)
    See even more at [2].

My question (or kind request) to the Speakers of this Webinar would be as follows:

  1. Could the speakers of this Webinar please comment on how they percieve IBM’s state and approach in that regard?
  2. Also, of course, it might be interesting to learn more about the differences between KenSci’s and Watson’s approaches towards “explainability in ML models” (esp. for Healthcare AI).

Thanks a lot in advance! Looking forward to the Webinar. :slight_smile:
