GoKawiilEntrepreneur op-ed argues AI cost savings are offset by verification work
An Arizona State University lecturer and founder of AI implementation firm Main & Machine writes that businesses are underestimating the real cost of checking AI-generated output before use. He cites U.S. Census Bureau data showing overall business AI adoption at 17% to 20% in late 2025 through early 2026. He argues that treating 'human in the loop' as a mere checkbox fails because a quick second look often isn't genuine verification.
