As more and more people are becoming dependent on algorithmic decision making in their daily lives, debates around the transparency of AI have increasingly focused on ethical issues In particular, the issue of ‘Black Box’ decision making, which has been criticized as being potentially biased and unfair, has come under scrutiny Some fear that such process could diminish people’s trust in AI and machine driven decision making Although the principle of transparency has been proposed as a solution in many ethical guidelines, a clear definition has yet to emerge Furthermore, it is unclear how transparency can function within real world systems, especially in the case of ‘embodiment intelligent’ systems In this paper, we will address this issue by looking at the case of a sit to stand support healthcare robot with an SVM algorithm.
