AI Agent "Ghost-Op" Margin.

Diagnoses the hidden cost of "Autonomous" agents by modeling the "Human-in-the-loop" tax, where 24/7 expert supervision and error correction eat 65% of the projected automation savings.

## The Myth of Autonomy

Companies often fire ten $50k employees and hire one $150k 'AI Manager' to watch the robots. The 'Ghost-Op' margin models the reality that AI is not a replacement for labor, but a transformation of labor into checking.
