Democratic accountability now requires that elected representatives of "the people" have access to AI systems that can oversee and audit other AI systems. Look at the details of the METR report and you can see why — the only plausible way to dig into the entire trail of deliberation and action is with AI.

So then we have to figure out, how does that work? How can overseers know their oversight model is honest and accurate?
