New frontiers in Explainable AI

AI is astonishing: it can drive cars, answer questions, match people's faces with their passport photos, beat the best champions at chess, and much more… But, have you ever wondered how it works? And what happens when it makes mistakes? Will it ever become dangerous? We are far from Terminator-like catastrophic events, but the problem is real. AI now competes and sometimes outperforms people on many tasks thanks to the development of new learning algorithms, particularly neural networks.
