dc.description.abstractWireless networks like many multi-user services have to balance limited resources in real-time. In 6G, increased network automation makes consumer trust crucial. Trust is reflect in both a personal emotional sentiment as well as a physical understanding of the transparency of AI decision making. Whilst there has been isolated studies of consumer sentiment to wireless services, this is not well linked to the decision making engineering. Likewise, limited recent research in explainable AI (XAI) has not established a link to consumer perception.Here, we develop a Quality-of-Trust (QoT) KPI that balances personal perception with the quality of decision explanation. That is to say, the QoT varies with both the time-varying sentiment of the consumer as well as the accuracy of XAI outcomes. We demonstrate this idea with an example in Neural Water-Filling (N-WF) power allocation, where the channel capacity is perceived by artificial consumers that communicate through Large Language Model (LLM) generated text feedback. Natural Language Processing (NLP) analysis of emotional feedback is combined with a physical understanding of N-WF decisions via meta-symbolic XAI. Combined they form the basis for QoT. Our results show that whilst the XAI interface can explain up to 98.9% of the neural network decisions, a small proportion of explanations can have large errors causing drops in QoT. These drops have immediate transient effects in the physical mistrust, but emotional perception of consumers are more persistent. As such, QoT tends to combine both instant physical mistrust and long-term emotional trends.en_UK
