So in theory, with XAI methods and the right know-how, even complex black-box models can be at least partially interpreted. But how does it look in reality? In many projects or use cases, interpretability is an important pillar of the overall success. Security aspects, lack of trust in the model results, possible future regulations as well as ethical concerns ensure the need for interpretable ML models.
