The machines are fine. I'm worried about us.

On AI agents, grunt work, and the part of science that isn't replaceable.

@repepo I quite like the line:

> supervision is the physics

where you can replace physics with many others, such as "programming".

The difference between the two usage modes of accelerating the knowledge one already won versus replacing the effort needing to win the knowledge on the place, harks back to the centaur vs reverse centaur modes of operation described by @pluralistic

That final note, that the people who are already careful feel the need to be even more careful, resonates too!
