Also known as: Explainability (XAI) · Explainable AI (XAI) · XAI
Explainable AI (XAI) bezeichnet KI-Systeme, Methoden oder Eigenschaften, die wichtige Faktoren hinter Ausgaben für Menschen verständlich machen. XAI unterstützt Transparenz, Rechenschaftspflicht, Anfechtbarkeit und Vertrauen, insbesondere in wirkungsstarken Umgebungen, in denen betroffene Personen Entscheidungen verstehen oder anfechten müssen.
Explainability means enabling people affected by the outcome of an AI system to understand how it was arrived at. This entails providing easy-to-understand information to people affected by an AI system's outcome that can enable those adversely affected to challenge the outcome, notably - to the extent practicable - the factors and logic that led to an outcome. Notwithstanding, explainability can be achieved in different ways depending on the context (such as, the significance of the outcomes).
As defined by the OECD, explainability encompasses efforts to enable people affected by AI system outputs and outcomes to understand how they were arrived at. This entails providing easy-to-understand information to people affected by an AI system's outcome that can enable those adversely affected to challenge the outcome, notably - to the extent practicable - the factors and logic that led to an outcome.
