It’s more like calling a human who’s as smart as you are and directly plugged into your brain and in fact reusing your world model and train of thought directly to understand the implications of your decision. That’s a huge step up from calling a real human over the phone!
The reason the real human proposal doesn’t work is that
the humans you call will lack context on your decision
they won’t even be able to receive all the context
they’re dumber and slower than you so even if you really could write out your entire chain of thoughts and intuitions consulting them for every decision would be impractical
Note that none of these considerations apply to integrated language models!
