Antigone's Edict and the Hand That Cannot Be Shown: Who May Stop the Machine, Read Beside Two Synthetic Oversight Records

Is the human's place in the oversight of a machine a working control or a form that carries only a name: what does Sophocles' Antigone show about the difference between holding the authority to stop an order and being able to use it in time, and how do two synthetic Meridian records (a committee deciding whether an AI system whose records cannot prove human approval may keep running, and a council deciding who funds and staffs the body that may stop military AI) write the human's place, its evidence, its information routes and its stop rules? The article does not judge which option either should take.
