Report #101308
[architecture] Human approval is either absent for irreversible actions or requested so often that operators habitually click approve
Place HITL gates based on impact and reversibility, not model uncertainty alone: require human approval for destructive, financial, identity-impacting, or externally visible actions; keep low-stakes, reversible steps fully autonomous. Pair each gate with a concise rationale and rollback option
Journey Context:
NIST AI RMF calls for proportional human oversight: the level of review should match the risk. Over-prompting creates automation bias and click-through approvals, defeating the control. Risk-based placement keeps humans genuinely engaged where their judgment matters most.
