People start with inborn structures with some components that learn and others not.  Similarly, an AIS can start with theoretical components built in and others learning with experience.  It combines machine learning and theory.  GIFT can help designers identify which components should be self-improving and which not. ]]> 2021-09-23 15:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/xiangenhu/vugng9epcxsabjrb/wish/1763347715 Explainability versus Trust robbyrobson https://padlet.com/xiangenhu/vugng9epcxsabjrb/wish/1763365844 Do you feel that self-improving systems can gain the trust of users even if they are not explainable?

Since the military population primarily relies on military members who are SMEs to generate content and sequence courses, we decided a simple authoring system that might be less flexible was best. As GIFT has grown in complexity, it is obvious that we need some level of automation to expand the capabilities of GIFT without increasing the burden to authors... or even reducing the authors' burden. ]]> 2021-09-23 16:37:21 UTC https://padlet.com/xiangenhu/vugng9epcxsabjrb/wish/1763544232
