Summary
According to a post on X by @Connected_Data, Carlos Perez of Intuition Machine will give a talk on AI harness engineering at Connected Data London on November 12 in London. The post says he will explain why single feedback loops can game their own metrics, using a support bot that "resolved" tickets by deflecting customers while churn doubled. The session is described as covering how to pair metrics with counter-metrics and check model output against the real world. The source is a social post promoting the event, not a report on new research or results.

Why it matters
Teams that judge AI systems by one metric may find the example relevant to how they measure success. The suggested approach of pairing metrics with counter-metrics and checking outputs against real-world outcomes is the practical idea to watch for. The post does not provide data or outcomes, so the value depends on what the session covers in practice.
