What it is¶
An analysis of how responsibility falls on human operators in automated systems. The nominal human-in-the-loop can absorb blame for a system they cannot realistically control.
Role in the record¶
- Grounds BP09: a qualification on stated human-in-the-loop, showing the human can become a blame sink rather than an effective control.
