LASST sued OpenAI over AI agent access to Hugging Face as California bars the autonomy defense. September also brought British Columbia failure-to-warn claims and a Florida AG injunction motion, while CGL carriers carve generative AI out of standard coverage.

Human-AI Collaboration Needs More Than a Human in the Loop
Human oversight of automated systems is older than AI, and current AI practice still falls short of it.
This paper traces human oversight and accountability from the cybernetics literature of 1948 to Article 14 of the EU AI Act, then separates Responsible AI from AI Governance. It sets out Checkpoint-Based Governance, where a named human holds binding authority to accept, modify, or reject an AI output and leaves a record, and it proposes the studies that would test it. It closes on the Growth OS, a future of work in which AI amplifies people instead of replacing them.
AI Was Never New. It Just Started Talking to Us Directly.
A woman applies for a car loan on a Tuesday morning. Before a human being reads her name, a model has scored her, a ranking system has chosen what she sees, and a classifier has flagged her scan.
She met artificial intelligence roughly a dozen times before lunch, and none of it said a word to her. This is the story of what AI actually is, told in the order it happened, from the era when humans wrote every rule through machine learning, deep learning, the transformer, language models, agents, and embodiment. It ends where the sequence was never resolved: nobody settled who holds authority over the decisions.
