The Final Bottleneck

→ original

Because it is not the final bottleneck. We will find ways to take responsibility for what we ship, because society will demand it. Non-sentient machines will never be able to carry responsibility, and it looks like we will need to deal with this problem before machines achieve this status. Regardless of how bizarre they appear to act already.

I too am the bottleneck now. But you know what? Two years ago, I too was the bottleneck. I was the bottleneck all along. The machine did not really change that. And for as long as I carry responsibilities and am accountable, this will remain true. If we manage to push accountability upwards, it might change, but so far, how that would happen is not clear.
