I agree with this. I thought the AI 2027 paper put it well:

> There are even bioengineered human-like creatures (to humans what corgis are to wolves) sitting in office-like environments all day viewing readouts of what’s going on and excitedly approving of everything, since that satisfies some of Agent-4’s drives.

I'll leave it up to you to decide if that's an enviable/desirable future.

I don’t even see why they have to be bioengineered. We have all-natural human beings doing this right now, except they are rubber-stamping human rather than artificial directives.

They don't, it's just at that point in the AI 2027 story the AI has already wiped out the humans due to resource contention (similar to how humans largely wiped out the wolves).
