Q: I have an unexplainable AI that prevents 1000 violent crimes and an explainable one that prevents 500. What do I do? A: Allow 500 people to be raped, beaten and murdered. I wish AI ethics people would consider the utilitarian effects of their grand pronouncements.https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/1051586184399470592 …

I agree that this totalitarian argument for advertising ‘explainable AI’ is stupid, but in practice it may often be possible to make the classifiers and models explainable, and doing so may actually improve their performance.

I agree - if you can improve accuracy, you should. But now you're getting away from ethics and into "how do I do better math?"

There is a big misunderstanding about AI ethics. Some see it as getting power over technically skilled poeple through deploying political skills. But it is about developing more complex technical specifications by modeling more consequences. Ethics requires MORE math, not less.
