François Chollet: Keep Humans in the Loop in All Critical Processes, Even When AI Could Run Autonomously
fchollet · x · 2026-09-04
François Chollet argues society should deliberately keep humans in the loop across all critical economic and social processes, regardless of technical necessity: even if AI gains the capability for advanced autonomy, we should not deploy it highly autonomously — control, visibility, and understanding of critical processes must be maintained. He notes AI deployment limits were long defined only by technical capability; now the kind of world we shape must become a deliberate collective choice.
