Reconciling Consistency-Based Diagnosis with Actual-Causality-Based Explanations

The paper establishes connections between Consistency-Based Diagnosis (CBD) and concepts of Actual Causality and Causal Responsibility from the perspective of Explainable AI (XAI). It highlights that CBD has received limited attention within the XAI community and suggests that linking these areas could positively influence both XAI and Explainable Data Management.

What Can Artificial Intelligence Learn from Medicine? Generative Analogies and Reliable Machine Learning Systems

The paper examines how machine learning (ML) in medicine parallels clinical translation, framing this relationship as a generative analogy. It identifies epistemic and methodological warrants from clinical translation that are often invoked in ML discussions and analyzes how these warrants apply analogically to ML. The authors propose a new form of ML reliabilism, interpreting clinical translation warrants in reliabilist terms and showing how this perspective can inform ML systems distinct from existing reliabilist accounts in philosophy of AI.

Algorithmic Authority and the Clinical Standard of Care

arXiv:2606. 00044v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence into clinical medicine creates a fundamental tension between algorithmic probabilistic reasoning and the experiential intuition of expert physicians; applying Lawrence Lessig's \enquote{Code is Law} framework, I argue that the architecture of clinical AI systems already functions as de facto medical regulation, reshaping liability and the standard of care.
