Why Agents Still Need Humans

From the creator

NLW explores the next wave of human-agent collaboration, using Dan Shipper’s “After Automation” essay and Every’s agent experiments to argue that automation is creating more expert human work, not less. The episode looks at shared team agents, the “human sandwich” model, the limits of fully autonomous OpenClaw-style agents, and why Codex and Claude Code point toward a more semi-synchronous future of managing agent work across devices.
