That's a really good analogy. The interesting part is that the "intern" is not only fast, but also extremely confident. A human intern usually hesitates, asks questions, or signals uncertainty when they are unsure. Agents often produce very clean-looking output even when the reasoning behind it is shaky. So part of the supervision isn't just checking the result, but trying to detect when the confidence is misleading.
