3 Ways to Think About It

💡
The Quick Take

An AI structure inspired by the brain - layers of connected nodes that are notoriously hard to test and explain.

🔍
Look Closer

The 'black box' at the heart of many AI systems, where testing focuses on inputs/outputs since internals are opaque.

🎯
The Bottom Line

Interconnected processing layers that learn patterns, requiring specialized coverage metrics like neuron coverage.
