I was asked to implement a concurrent system component and then discuss how to make it fault-tolerant under specific failure modes. The follow-up questions were brutal—they kept pushing on edge cases regarding memory safety and race conditions in a high-throughput environment. It felt much more like a real-world engineering challenge than a standard whiteboard session.

Imagine you're part of a team deploying a conversational AI model that can reason across sensitive topics. During internal testing, you discovered that the model usually gives overly confident but factually wrong answers in high-risk contexts. How would you investigate and mitigate/solve that problem?
