Title: Social and Ethical Responsibilities of Computing and the Role of Explainability and Transparency
Abstract: This talk presents frameworks for considering social and ethical implications in technology conception, implementation and deployment. Specifically I discuss frameworks for identifying sources of bias in machine learning systems, recent methods for transparency and interpretability of ML models and their limitations, and the role of problem and value framing as a key leverage point to shape technology for human benefit.

Title: Explainable Reasoning in Face of Contradictions: From Humans to Machines
Abstract: A well-studied trait of human reasoning and decision-making is the ability to not only make decisions in the presence of contradictions, but also to explain why a decision was made, in particular if a decision deviates from what is expected by an inquirer who requests the explanation. In this talk, I examine this phenomenon, which has been extensively explored by behavioral economics research, from the perspective of symbolic artificial intelligence.
