This post reminds me of this essay, which I enjoyed, on the topic of automation and deskilling: http://www.macroresilience.com/2011/12/29/people-make-poor-monitors-for-computers/.

That was a good article! I also find it noteworthy that the sucessful example of humans recovering from a failure involved them extensively using checklists, particularly in reference to automation and deskilling in general.
