CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS
Help shape the future of XAI: Your voice matters.
Let’s define XAI together during the XAI-2026, 4th World Conference on Explainable Artificial Intelligence, Fortaleza, Brazil We invite you to participate in an interactive research study during XAI-2026 exploring how stakeholders define and understand the boundaries of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). Despite rapid growth in the field, there is still no shared agreement on what “explainability” truly means.
Join at this LIVE SURVEY LINK on the 3rd of July.
From 11am Brasilian time (GMT-3), 4pm Central EU (CET), 10pm Singapore time (SGT)
Why participate?
Why participate?
Your participation will help advance an important collective discussion within the XAI community: what does it really mean for an AI system to be explainable? By contributing your perspective, you will help identify areas of agreement, disagreement, and conceptual ambiguity among researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders. The session offers an opportunity to reflect, discuss, and engage with peers on the boundaries, meanings, and appropriate uses of XAI. While there is no direct financial benefit, your input may contribute to future research, publications, and methodological developments aimed at strengthening conceptual clarity and rigour in the field.
Your voice can help shape how the XAI community understands and defines its own foundations.
| Contribute to a foundational understanding of XAI |
| Share your perspective with a global community of experts |
| Help guide the future of XAI research and practice |
About the Study: A 90-minute interactive session exploring:
