previously we described your definition for "rogue agent" as hallucinations - the operator expected a real answer to their question, and the agent went rogue and lied about the answer instead.

but also, ai has been going rogue for decades. the GPS machines of old went rogue all the time, routing drivers into lakes, rivers, and construction, sometimes with deadly results. The operator submitting an address wanted driving isntructions, but instead, the ai went rogue and sent them a bad route
