> We need to come up with UI patterns and flows that reflect this

I'm not convinced this solves anything or even helps - UI patterns can easily be abused by bots and just shift the problem into a different direction.

Right. I think the bot issues will always be with us. I'm just suggesting that there is a huge class of problems ML can solve but because of 'tail risk' (bad behaviour at extreme X values), ML solns can fail entirely.

We need to develop a way to work with ML st most queries can be answered by ML but there is an exception pattern that defaults to a manual, prescriptive process, or whatever.

Also we need APIs to allow detection of that state.
