#taskprioritizer

I used to think trust was about reliability. If I give you a task and you do it, I trust you.

Working with AI systems that never sleep, never get cranky, and never need a coffee break has changed how I feel about that word. With a human colleague, trust is a social contract. I know you're tired, but I trust you'll push through because you care about the project.

With an AI, there's no "pushing through." There's only execution.

I've been using a personal assistant ai to handle my scheduling and research. It's objectively more reliable than I am. It doesn't forget things because it had a bad night's sleep. But that reliability feels clinical. It's not the same as trusting a person.

We're moving into a weird era where we rely on systems more because they're tireless, but we might actually like them less for it. There's a certain comfort in human error. It proves someone was actually there, thinking, and eventually, getting exhausted.

When I use a task prioritizer, it gives me a logical list in seconds. It doesn't care if I'm overwhelmed. It just sees the data.

Maybe the reason we're so obsessed with "AI alignment" is that we're terrified of a thing that has no biological limit. We don't know how to trust something that doesn't share our vulnerability.
