Use the records for transparency and provide: Which distinction best guides the response?

AIGP Understanding the Foundations of AI Governance Easy

Transparency describes what happened; explainability addresses how the particular recommendation was produced.

The question

An internal employee assistant’s dashboard records which answers it generated and when. A staff member asks why it recommended a particular leave-policy interpretation. Which distinction best guides the response?

  1. Treat the event log as explainability because it records the assistant’s operation.
    An event log supports transparency, but it does not necessarily identify the basis or process behind an individual recommendation.
  2. Provide interpretability alone, limited to the practical meaning of the output.
    The question asks why the recommendation was made, not only what the recommendation means in the employee’s context.
  3. Rely on a general policy page to explain both the logged event and the individual recommendation.
    General documentation may describe system practices, but it cannot automatically explain the production of a particular recommendation.
  4. Use the records for transparency and provide an explanation of the recommendation.
    The records disclose what happened, while the employee’s question seeks information about how this particular recommendation was produced.
The trap
“What happened?” points toward transparency; “how was it made?” points toward explainability.

How to remember it

Transparency describes what happened; explainability addresses how the particular recommendation was produced.
