You don’t think the black box nature of much of AI has any impact on its impact in safety critical applications?
Just look at the diverse and haphazard way AI has been used in autonomous driving. I would argue it’s a misplacement of the “move fast and break things” (in some cases at least) that has no place in public-facing safety critical applications.
It brings up some difficult questions regarding adequacy of testing at the very least when the underpinnings are not very interpretable.
