How many jobs involve purely clicking things on a computer without human authorities, rules, regulations, permits, spending agreements, privacy laws, security requirements, insurance requirements, or licensing gates?
I wager, almost none. The bottleneck in most work isn't "clicking things on a computer." It's human judgment, authorization chains, regulatory gates, accountability requirements, and spending approvals. Agents automate the easy part and leave the hard part untouched. Meanwhile, if the agents also get it wrong, even 1% of the time, that's going to add up like compound interest in wasted time. Anything that could actually be outsourced to an agent, would have already been outsourced to Kenya.
Without any of these, yes. With very basic rules, a LOT of them.
How many caught attempts will it take for someone to find the right prompt injection to systematically evade LLMs here?
With a random selection of sub-competent human reviewers, the answer is approximately infinity.
Another parallel here is that AI agents will probably end up being poor customers in the sense of repeat business and long-term relationships. Like how some shops won’t advertise on some platforms because the clicks aren’t worth as much, on average, maybe we’ll start to see something similar for agents.
Think of this like going to a doctor with a simple question. It probably won’t be simple to them. At the end though, we usually do whatever they tell us. Because they are the experts, not us.
