#4931 Explainable Generative-AI

#4931 Explainable Generative-AI #4931  Describe the current state of explainable generative-AI Explainable AI (XAI) for generative architectures has shifted from traditional post-hoc surface attributions (like LIME, SHAP, and raw token attention heatmaps) toward mechanistic interpretability , internal representation probing , and structural verification . Because generative models construct high-dimensional, multi-step sequential outputs rather than scalar classifications, explaining why an output was generated requires inspecting the model’s internal computation graphs, factual recall mechanisms, and execution traces. Core Methodological Pillars Mechanistic Interpretability & Circuit Analysis: Instead of viewing transformer weights as an inscrutable black box, mechanistic interpretability treats networks as computational circuits. Techniques focus on identifying induction heads, indirect object identification circuits, and tracing how attention heads write to an...
