HAOP articles and field notes

Focused pieces on AI as a performer, cognitive overrun, weak-signal loss, and operational safety in AI-enabled work systems.

These resources support the HAOP white paper by giving specific failure modes and design questions a place to stand on their own.

Concept

Cognitive Overrun

When human-in-the-loop becomes the appearance of control without the function of control: the reviewer remains accountable while the rate, density, or ambiguity of AI output exceeds human verification capacity.

Open Resource
Performer Threshold

The Second Performer

AI becomes a performer when it moves from bounded tool use into operational influence: routing, recommending, prioritizing, approving, or shaping what humans see first.

Open Resource
Knowledge Degradation

Architecture of Self-Destruction

A broader systems argument about AI replacement, recursive synthetic data, weak-signal loss, and the operational danger of extracting human expertise while degrading the human system that keeps AI grounded.
