Goodhart's Law works on steroids with AI. If you tell a human dev "we need 100% coverage," they might write a few dummy tests, but they'll feel shame. AI feels no shame - it has a loss function. If the metric is "lines covered" rather than "invariants checked," the agent will flood the project with meaningless tests faster than a manager can blink. We'll end up with a perfectly green CI/CD dashboard and a completely broken production because the tests will verify tautologies, not business logic
