The Limits of Human Oversight in the Age of AI Agents

Why it matters

Data & Society describes a discussion of why approval prompts and pause buttons may be insufficient for agent oversight. Drawing on the Oversight Fallacy primer and computational-biology fieldwork, the panel asks what users need to recognise mistakes and intervene before consequences cascade. This is an argument about oversight design, not a claim that every deployment fails.

Discuss: What would make agent oversight meaningful when the user cannot recognise an incorrect plan quickly enough to interrupt it?
