Machine Learning Systems Design with Sara Hooker: Interpretability

The video discusses the evolution of podcasting from Zoom to in-person formats, highlighting the challenges of latency and emotional cues. It delves into research interests in explainability within NLP, emphasizing the balance between domain knowledge and machine learning models. The conversation explores balancing multiple objectives in machine learning, such as performance and interpretability. It also covers interpretability methods, focusing on their reliability and the importance of aligning model outputs with human intuition to build trust.

What role does trust play in the context of interpretability and model predictions?

Why is it important for interpretability methods to be reliable?

What are the consequences of misattributing importance in model predictions?

How does the discussion relate interpretability to human judgment?
