Unit 4: The lowest rung that solves the task

Five rungs, the shaping question, and why a low rung can carry a large effect. Human control that is real rather than a signature.

By the end of this unit you can

  • Choose the lowest rung that closes the need sentence
  • Assess consequence, scale, reversibility, population and detectability separately from the rung
  • Design a control step a person would actually exercise
