Are AI executives begging for immunity from damage they created with hallucinations? Is the sudden concern about "humanity" a smokescreen for a technology with a 95% failure rate? Have AI executives been making knowingly false promises for years (i.e. fraud)? www.thedataexperts.us/writing/ente...

thedataexperts.usEnterprise AI Failure Rate: Why 95% Fail, per MIT (2025)MIT's 2025 NANDA study found 95% of GenAI pilots return no measurable value. The root causes, the ROI gap, and what the 5% that succeed do differently.

The "rogue" framing is an attribution error, and the write-up is where to fix it. If an outside control blocked a request, record a containment success, never the model choosing restraint. If the model stopped before any control engaged, that's behavior, not proof the boundary can go.

Good framing — 'rogue' is usually containment that never existed to begin with. The control I keep landing on: scope what the agent can actually touch. Least-privilege tools, egress filters, prod creds out of reach. Then a bad prompt is a bug to debug, not a break-in to triage.
