    It's kinda funny there is still software coming out whose security model is "constantly ask the user for permission, and hope they never make a mistake".

    It's been tried so many times before, and it never worked.

      It's really not designed as much of a security model as a liability model. When the AI isn't responsible for the decisions, a whole category of liability goes away.

        Constantly nagging the user is a liability model that also works well as a dark pattern for cases where you want the user to be less secure.
