Felix Klein Colloquium: Mathematics is a key to accountable AI?

The ubiquitous and boosting rise of AI technologies like AlphaGo, AlphaFold and GPT-4 heralds a new historic era. Multiple areas of human activity will be affected by this rapid and - in many aspects, alarming - development. A brief review of key mathematical challenges omnipresent in this rise of AI will be discussed in the talk, highlighting how mathematics can potentially help in decreasing some of the emergent problems and risks. lt will be discussed how math may potentially help in reducing AI vulnerability to adversarial attacks, as well as in decreasing its sensitivity to data quality and amount. lt will also be briefly discussed how mathematics can potentially help increasing the AI accountability, explainability and computational scalability, with some examples from climate research, economics and biomedical sciences.

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Illia Horenko, RPTU in Kaiserslautern
