Is anyone working on a totally disconnected complementary narrative-generating module that just makes up a plausible-sounding explanation for a decision? You know, like we humans do?

So... actually. This is exactly what we do.

When I say "disconnected" I mean no cheating and looking at the model that generated the decision. Just make up something that sounds good.

We train another, much simpler model on the output of the first. So we don’t look at the model, but we do look at the inputs and outputs. I think this is exactly what you mean no?

Well I was going for a jab at we humans overestimating our ability to explain our own decisions and not just come up with a good story after the fact. I had hope that being able to look at the model might actually help better explain ML decisions than less inspectable human ones.

Probably much like our own brain, modeling the model as a black box makes a more generalizable explanation system.

I guess you can use enough inputs and outputs to do something akin to behavioral science on your models, which is actually useful. When I make a single decision and tell you why, I don't have enough observations so I have to make something up.

Replying to @andrewcatton @posco and
Or I'm smarter about it and consult human behavioral studies more generally. Then I just apply the best generic explanation for a person making a similar decision to my own case. It probably has something to do with whether I made the decision just before or just after lunch.

This seems like a constructed narrative explanation for how you construct narrative explanations, if you ask me.
