Some of the most consequential risks stem from something far more mundane: the cognitive limitations of the AI itself. Hallucinations, overconfidence, misalignment, and context drift—these aren't rare edge cases. They are well-documented and, in many cases, expected behaviors of current-generation AI systems.
