Great example! I wonder how similar this is to the automation over the last ~150 years of everything else. Not so much a disempowerment story (humans do keep control of the motivations and strategy), but of fragility caused by efficiency.
Like, say, farming and food transportation, there’s nothing machines can do that humans can’t, in theory. But unassisted humans can’t do it at the scale or precision that our civilization is based on.
