SUMMARY:Is ChatGPT adequate for decision-making? - Victor O.K. Li\, Univer

DESCRIPTION:The AI to Advance Well-being and Society Research Hub at the U
 niversity of Hong Kong (HKU-AI WiSe)\, and HKU-Cambridge Clean Energy and 
 Environment Research Platform\, led by Prof. Victor OK Li and Dr. Jacqueli
 ne CK Lam\, have been addressing societal and healthcare problems using AI
  and big data technologies\, and advocating AI for Social Good. Large lang
 uage models (LLMs)\, such as ChatGPT\, are a type of artificial intelligen
 ce (AI) that can process vast amounts of text data to generate human-like 
 responses to prompts. However\, to support sound decision-makings\, there 
 is a need for a clear understanding of the decision-making processes and t
 he driving factors.  Unfortunately\, AI is not yet fully explainable or in
 terpretable\, which can limit its usefulness in decision-makings. In addit
 ion\, there are limitations to the accuracy and reliability of LLMs due to
  their dependence on the quality of the training data and their inability 
 to understand the context of information. In this talk\, we survey some of
  the existing work in explainability/interpretability of AI models\, and s
 tudy how they may be used to improve the interpretability and reliability 
 of future LLMs to make them more useful in decision-making contexts.\n\n*B

 interests include big data\, AI\, optimization techniques\, AI and Medicin
 e\, and interdisciplinary clean energy and environment studies.  In Jan 20
 18\, he was awarded a USD 6.4M RGC Theme-based Research Project to develop
  deep learning techniques for personalized and smart air pollution monitor
 ing and health management.  Sought by government\, industry\, and academic
  organizations\, he has lectured and consulted extensively internationally
 . He has received numerous awards\, including the PRC Ministry of Educatio
 n Changjiang Chair Professorship at Tsinghua University\, the UK Royal Aca

 HKU-Cambridge AI to Advance Well-being and Society Research Platform\, and
  the HKU-Cambridge AI for Neuro-disease Research Platform. She is the Visi
 ting Senior Research Fellow and Associate Researcher in Energy Policy Rese
 arch Group\, Judge Business School\, the University of Cambridge. She was 
 a visiting scholar at CEEPR\, MIT (2019)\, EECS\, MIT (2021)\, and at the 
 Department of Computer Science and Technology\, the University of Cambridg
 e (2022\, 2023). Her recent focus is on AI-driven neurodegenerative biomar
 ker identification and drug repurposing\, as well as personalized air poll
 ution monitoring and health management in relation to asthma disease. Her 
 work has been published in Nature Scientific Reports\, Nature Humanities a
