That assumes it can even be done. It's worth looking into. There have been some projects in those areas. Mixing probabilistic logic with deep learning: https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.08485 https://github.com/ML-KULeuven/deepproblog Combining decision trees with neural nets for interpretability: https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.07553 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.02824v1 https://arxiv.org/pdf/1806.06988 https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2020/EECS-2020-... It looks like model transfer from uninterpretable, pretrained models to interpretable models is the best strategy to keep using. That also justifies work like Ai2's OLMo model where all pretraining data is available to use other techniques, like those in search engines, to help explainable models connect facts back to source material.
In Mayo Clinic's secret weapon against AI hallucinations: Reverse RAG in action
There's a nice book[1][2] about Prolog, with modern characteristics. Moreover, there are things like ProbLog[3] and DeepProbLog[4] that allow you to use probabilistic reasoning and power of machine learning. I am personally looking forward for Scryer Prolog[5] to achieve its goals.

In Why did Prolog lose steam? (2010)
There is also ProbLog (Probabilistic Prolog)[1][2] and even extension of it with a deep learning - DeepProbLog[3]. Personally, though, I hope that new ISO Prolog implementation in Rust, aiming for the performance, Scryer Prolog[4] will add the probabilistic capability [5].
