Jina Yoon's July 27 piece rejects the premise that agent trustworthiness tracks model quality: "the real answer has nothing to do with the model, and everything to do with the task." She grids delegation on two axes, is the work easy to verify and are mistakes cheap to reverse, yielding Level 0 Assistant (hard to check, costly to undo), Level 1 Human-in-the-loop, Level 2 Delegation gated by safety checks, Level 3 Self-driving. Her claim that scale isn't a factor, get autonomy right at the task level and scale handles itself, is the part I'd want data on. No quantitative results accompany the framework.
