On the other hand, this does not connect with the motivation we provide to evaluate the decision of (computer/ML/AI) systems, since jail-or-bail decisions are not currently made by such systems. The bank loan example might look better in the abstract.} % For example, when deciding whether a defendant should be granted bail or rather be led to jail, a decision is deemed successful if it grants bail to defendants who would honor the conditions of the bail and leads to jail ones who would violate them. % % However, in such cases, we are only able to directly evaluate the mechanism when it grants bail, while we cannot observe the potential bail violations by defendants who were led to jail. -- GitLab
