Safe and Testable Computer Vision with Lakera

This week I spoke with Mateo Rojas-Carulla, the CTO and a co-founder of Lakera and Matthias Kraft, also a co-founder and the CPO there. Lakera is an AI safety company that does a lot of work in the computer vision domain, building a platform and tools for users to gain more confidence in the output and functionality of their models.

We discuss how they think about the testing of machine learning models, and about how having this safety element upfront has implications for how you go about the testing and ensuring robustness. We specifically dive into how to go about testing computer vision models and the various pitfalls that are to be found in that domain.
