Could you build this?

Partial The UI and local LLM orchestration are straightforward, but correctly computing feature attribution using PyTorch Captum on non-standard time-series deep learning architectures requires ML domain expertise.

What it would actually take: A production version requires a Python backend integrating PyTorch, PyTorch Captum (for Integrated Gradients, DeepLIFT, or SHAP algorithms), and local LLM runtimes like Ollama or vLLM. The challenging aspect is translating gradient-based feature attribution across multi-channel temporal dimensions into structured prompt representations that an LLM can accurately interpret without hallucinating spurious correlations. This demands ML expertise in time-series modeling and model explainability techniques.
