Sure, but if we could take the model generated by the AI and convert it into a set of quantifiable criteria - i.e., what is being correlated - we could use our human abilities of associative thought to gain an understanding of why this correlation may exist, possibly leading to better understanding of Autism overall.

The problem is identifying what an AI model is doing is basically impossible. You can't just decompile an AI model and see a bunch of logic, and you can't view the machine code and reverse engineer it because it isn't code in that sense. The best way to suss it out is to throw corner cases at it and try to figure out any common themes in the false negatives and false positives

No, we just haven't come up with a way of reverse-engineering AI models yet.
