Ensuring explicable decision-making processes, often referred to as explainability or interpretability, is critical for aligning AI systems with societal values and norms. NVIDIA’s Trustworthy AI framework emphasizes that explainable AI allows stakeholders to understand how decisions are made, fostering trust and ensuring compliance with ethical standards. This is particularly important for addressing biases and ensuring fairness. Option A (prediction accuracy) is important but does not guarantee ethical alignment. Option B (complex algorithms) may improve performance but not societal alignment. Option C (autonomy) can conflict with ethical oversight, making it less desirable.
