AI models are getting more agentic — can human oversight actually keep up?

The author observes OpenAI and Anthropic pushing models toward greater agency—completing more work per prompt—and frames this as an underappreciated human-AI interaction experiment. People used to work alongside models step by step, but now 'the model is running while we're still walking': entire workflows execute and dozens of decisions get made before humans can process what happened. He worries the widening gap between AI speed and human understanding may create more complications than benefits, and asks where the limit is.
