Is this a respected prize? I never heard of it before.

That said, no doubt that explainable ML/AI is important.

Congratulations! I think Interpretable AI mentioned in the article is what is commonly called explainable AI.

Cynthia has a great paper where she distinguishes between "interpretable" and "explainable"

Interesting article, but I think this sentence was unfair to other AI scholars, who also want AI to help society.

"While many scholars in the developing field of machine learning were focused on improving algorithms, Rudin instead wanted to use AI’s power to help society."

Is $1 Million respectable?
