That field is called Explainable AI and the answer is because that costs money and the only reason AI is being used is to cut costs

Thank you. I am fucking exhausted from hearing people claim these things are somehow magically impossible when the real issue is cost.

Computers and technology are amazing, but they are not magic. They are the most direct piece of reality where you can reliably say that every single action taken can be broken into discrete steps, even if that means tracing individual CPU operations on data registers like an insane person.
