Field notes
Participants set an optimization agent’s authority and safeguards, then move through a simulated clock spanning five business domains. The exercise offers three intervention choices—continue, restrict, or kill—and a recovery decision; it then proposes replaying identical conditions under BlueHour’s Operating Architecture, making the comparison about governance choices rather than a live enterprise deployment.
