Description

WhyLab is an AI incident investigator built on GPT-6 Astra. Upload your model's predictions and Astra hunts for the root cause — ranking hypotheses, running falsification experiments on held-out data, and proposing a fix it then re-tests. No guesses presented as facts.

Could you build this?

Partial A basic UI for uploading model outputs can be vibe-coded, but an automated causal ML falsification and incident investigation framework requires deep data science and statistical testing infrastructure.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires a distributed data-processing backend (e.g., Python, Ray, or Spark) capable of running automated counterfactual explanations, slice discovery algorithms, and statistical hypothesis testing (like SHAP, causal inference frameworks, or permutation testing) against holdout sets. The hard challenge is preventing spurious correlations in automated hypothesis generation and safely sandboxing model re-training or repair pipelines. This necessitates specialized machine learning engineering and causal ML expertise.
