The Case for Explainable AI (XAI)
Artificial Neural Networks offer significant performance benefits compared to other methodologies, but often at the expense of interpretability. Black box algorithms have precipitated a number of high-profile controversies arising from the inability to understand their inner workings. The efforts seeking to provide more transparency in this regard is referred to as Explainable AI (XAI).

Easy Interpretation of a Logistic Regression Model with Delta-p Statistics
Delta-p statistics is an easier means of communicating results to a non-technical audience than the plain coefficients of a logistic regression model. In this article, authors Maarit Widmann and Alfredo Roccato discuss how to predict credit eligibility using the Delta-p statistics based solution.

The First Wave of GPT-3 Enabled Applications Offer a Preview of Our AI Future
The first wave of GPT-3 powered applications are emerging. After priming of only a few examples, GPT-3 could write essays, answer questions, and even generate computer code! Furthermore, GPT-3 can perform algebraic calculations and language translations despite never being taught such concepts. However, GPT-3 is a black box with unpredictable outcomes. Developers must use it responsively.
