"Human in the loop" has become a reflexive governance claim that masks a harder truth: humans cannot meaningfully oversee systems making decisions at machine speed and complexity. Genuine oversight requires different architectures—not human checkpoints grafted onto existing systems, but designs built with constraints, explainability, and reversibility from the start. The burden falls on engineers and product designers, not on reactive human monitors who will inevitably lag behind the systems they govern.
