tinyfool jokes that when an AI agent keeps pinging for approval, you can just ignore it for days — "then it's aligned with humans." He concedes the flip side: AI returns results tens of times faster than people, so asking for input every few minutes is arguably reasonable. A pithy take on the human-in-the-loop speed mismatch.
