How explainability breaks down when scrutiny begins
-
Why post-hoc explanations fail under audit and regulatory review
-
What distinguishes model explanations from human interpretations
-
Where explanation quality becomes a governance requirement
-
The operational structures needed to keep explanations consistent

-
What leaders should be asking before allowing AI systems to scale
