Yeah, disappointing to see this downvoted, and without even any down voters attempting to make a case for why this isn't a "good" answer.

I think that this part of the field is going to see a lot of relative growth as the broader public and governments become increasingly concerned. And for those who are not concerned with safety, it is not unreasonable to expect that capability progress could become bottlenecked by lack of model interpretability. Speculative, sure, but if we find that more data and transforms hits diminishing returns, it could prove significant to know what is going on inside the models. Maybe extracting and composing circuits is essential for AGI? Who knows?
