Post-hoc explanations are useful in many circumstances, but can they also help us to regulate machine learning systems? We ask this question in the context of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act. #AIAct

My "Kinderuni" lecture goes online: Why is AI not always fair? Waiting for lots of kids to watch and ask live questions afterwards (in german). Live streaming this thursday at 17:00 (and then, forever on youtube). kinder-uni.online

You want to understand which explanations SHAP produces for arbitrary functions? Or how to construct increasingly complex SHAP explanations for increasingly complex function classes? Read the answer in our #aistats23 paper with @s_bordt! arxiv.org/abs/2209.04012

ChatGPT passed our algorithms exam for BSc computer science students (without prompt engineering, in a blind grading setup). GPT-4 is even better. Neat idea and implementation by @s_bordt arxiv.org/abs/2303.09461

"Pitfalls of Climate Network Construction: A Statistical Perspective". With Moritz H and Bedartha Goswami, we show that many observations in climate networks might be spurious artifacts. And I am sure the same would hold for brain networks. doi.org/10.1175/JCLI-D…

📷 Benign overfitting even works in small, fixed dimension! Not with ReLu activation function or smooth kernels, but with extra-spiky variants. #neurips2023 paper with Moritz H, David Holzmüller, Ingo Steinwart: arxiv.org/abs/2305.14077

I am looking for a PhD student in explainable machine learning. You need strong mathematical skills (the goal is to formulate theorems and prove them) and an open mind when it comes to talking to applied ML, social science, ethics or law. tinyurl.com/4ptp5amd

Der #AIAct ist nicht perfekt, aber eine Zukunft ohne KI Regulierung wäre ein Disaster! Der AI Act muss JETZT verabschiedet werden! Er wird nie perfekt sein, dazu ist die Entwicklung in KI zu schnell. Bitte dafür stimmen! Volker Wissing Marco Buschmann Wirtschaftsminister Parody Robert Habeck Petra Olschowski
