As a former teacher, I've seen firsthand that a student is only as good as the curriculum they are given. The same is true for AI. We often talk about AI models as if they're magical tools, but they're really just students, learning from the instruction and data we provide. If we give them a curriculum full of contradictory metrics, scattered data, and ambiguous logic, it's not the student who failed, but a lesson plan that sets them up for failure.
