From what I understand the configuration space adds up to humans controlling the next state. This reminds me of when Eliezer was speaking about how one can separate out all the bones, tendons and ligaments of the hand and understand each one in turn but you still have to add them all up to a hand for them to function in their purpose as a hand..A bunch of bones, tendons and ligaments laying around separately may be useful in certain situations but they can't be a hand unless you combine them.
