What is an interpretable model? This term, appearing in many regulatory frameworks on AI, lacks a commonly accepted definition. In a paper to be presented at #COLT2024 this week, we address this problem from a learning-theoretic angle. arxiv.org/abs/2406.10529

I was recently asked to review "Geo-Visual Analysis of Rural Banditry Prevalence in Nigeria: A Panacea to Sustainable Food Supply to Urban Centers" I eventually declined, yet rural bandits sounds like a legit ICML keyword...

Interesting op-ed piece on open-source AI and EU's efforts to regulate AI.
“With the right regulatory environment, combined with the right ambition and some of the world’s top AI talent, the EU would have a real chance of leading the next generation of tech innovation,” write Mark Zuckerberg and Daniel Ek in a guest essay econ.st/4dJei1u
