Alarm fatigue
Operator distrust caused by too many low-value or false alarms.
What it means
Alarm fatigue happens when operators receive enough noisy alerts that they stop treating the queue as useful. It is a workflow failure as much as a model problem.
Why it matters
More alerts are not automatically better. The goal is fewer, cleaner, more useful events with clear response actions.
Evaluation questions
Which alerts are dismissed most often today?
What threshold makes an event worth interrupting a person?
How is operator acknowledgement measured?
