'''Explainable AI (''XAI'')''' is a neologism that has recently reached the parlance of [[Artificial Intelligence]]. It'sIts purpose is to provide accountability when addressing technological innovations ascribed to dynamic and none linearly programmed systems e.g. [[Artificial neural networks]], [[Deep learning]], [[Genetic Algorithms]], etc.

It is about asking the question of '''how''' algorithms arrive at their decisions. AI related algorithmic (supervised and unsupervised) practices work on a model of success that orientates towards some form of correct state, with singular focus placed on an expected output e.g. an image recognition algorithm's level of success will be based on the algorithms ability to recognize certain objects, failure to do so will indicate that the algorithm requires further tuning. As the tuning level is dynamic, closely correlated to function refinement and training data-set, granular understanding of the underlying operational vectors is rarely introspected.
