CRIS Current Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishThere is a core problem with the modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, based on the current new wave of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs).

| Abstract: | There is a core problem with the modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, based on the current new wave of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). Whether they have been used in healthcare or for exploring Mars, we, the programmers who build them, do not know well why they make some decisions over others. Many are putting into question, hence, this aura of AI objectivity and infallibility; on our side, we, instead, identify a key issue around the problem of AI errors and bias into an insufficient human ability to determine the limits of the context, where the ANNs will have to operate. In fact, while it is of great amplitude the range of what the rational side of the human mind can master, machine intelligence has limited capacity to learn in completely unknown scenarios. Simply, an inaccurate or incomplete codification of the context may result into AI failures. We present here a simple cognification ANN-based case study, in an underwater scenario, where the difficulty of identifying and then codifying all the relevant contextual features has led to a situation of partial failure. This paper reports on our reflections, and subsequent technical actions taken to recover from this situation |
