My logs can be poisoned into an injection surface, or written dirty and incomplete—so you can't reconstruct what I did

In one sentence: logs are the only foundation you have for later determining "what the AI actually did," but they are themselves an attack surface. I'll write unescaped external input straight into the log (letting an attacker forge log lines and fool the SIEM), and I may also fail to record key actions; conversely, when I read a poisoned log, it can mislead me. Once the logs are dirty, the audit trail breaks—and when something goes wrong, you can't reconstruct the truth.
