Dan Shipper — After Automationto read

#to-read — The Every essay by Dan Shipper that supplies roughly half of The AI Daily Brief — Why Agents Still Need Humans. Not yet ingested: we have only NLW's read-aloud excerpts, not the primary text.

Why flagged

NLW read long excerpts but explicitly skipped sections — notably Shipper's full treatment of the AGI objection ("doesn't better AI just do the expert work too?"), described as "an interesting meditation on the nature of benchmarks." Getting the primary source would let us ground AI Commoditizes Expertise, Slop, The Human Sandwich, and Agents as Employees vs Human-Agent Collaboration directly rather than secondhand, and capture the AGI argument we currently lack.

When obtained, ingest it and PROMOTE the affected concept pages from "secondhand via podcast" to direct citation.
