The entire computing industry bet on stochastic AI.

And almost nobody stopped to ask the most basic systems question.

Probability does not compose.

A model that’s “99.9% right” collapses to zero reliability when chained, embedded, and scaled.

This isn’t controversial. It’s first-year reliability math.

Yet the industry charges forward anyway — because stochastic systems are conveniently unaccountable.

When deterministic systems fail, someone fixes a bug.

When stochastic systems fail, they “hallucinate”.

No blame. No ownership. No guarantees.

That’s not intelligence.

That’s a liability abstraction layer.

Stochastic AI works for demos, summaries, vibes, and marketing decks.

It fails silently in law, finance, infrastructure, security, and long-horizon decision making — exactly where correctness must compound, not decay.

The market didn’t choose truth.

It chose surface plausibility at scale.

And now the entire industry is stacking probabilities on top of probabilities, praying the tail risk never comes due.

It will.

The correction won’t be philosophical.

It will be operational.

And it will be brutal.

Determinism doesn’t need hype.

Verification doesn’t need narratives.

Correct systems don’t ask for trust — they prove.

Stay hungry.

Stay dangerous.

Build things that still work when the probability runs out.
