AI delegation limited by verification, not capability

The author argues that the primary limitation on delegating tasks to AI agents is not the agent's capability, but the user's ability to verify its work. Current methods of supervision or blind trust are inefficient and risky. True delegation requires structural verification mechanisms that allow users to confidently review outcomes rather than micromanage processes. This is becoming increasingly critical as AI capabilities advance faster than human verification abilities. AI
