What Would Be the First 3 Tasks You Would Trust an AI Assistent to Do For You?

avatar

When we talk about the very likelihood of having personal AI assistants in the relative close future, there are two, maybe three issues that would need to be overcome to an extent or within some limits before people will start using AI assistants at scale:

  • first, but maybe not the most important, is the aversion toward AI, in some cases; unless major f*ckups will happen, time will take care of this one, even though AI is more than a new technology
  • then, there is the matter of learning to trust the AI that it will do a better job than you or another human on the tasks entrusted; in many cases, that won't be a problem, after a while... Even if we talk about some rough work that needs supervision or guidance/tweaking at the end.
  • there is also the issue of privacy or lack thereof - will using an AI assistant for any task mean that task/interest and its results are added to your personal profile by the provider of the AI assistant as a software or hardware service (i.e. a robot, in the second case)? Hard to make a case against this at scale. In specific cases, knowledgeable people may be able to create their own AI assistants, using their own infrastructure and software, and likely being able to control the level of privacy through the amount of personal data and tracking they store, in case they get hacked.

But let's say AI assistants become widespread... What would be the first 3 relatively complex tasks you would entrust to them?


Ideogram moves too far ahead with the personal AI assistant vision - already a robot. I believe we'll have them before they'll be in their physical form.

One of the first tasks I'd use an AI assistant for would be to analyze various scenarios on Hive/Splinterlands/etc. and understand how I can optimize my outcome based on what I want to achieve (land analysis, anyone, once we get to Land 2.0?). Of course, for that we would need an AI assistant trained or that can be adapted to the Hive ecosystem easily. The privacy part is irrelevant, since everything is public on Hive. Would I trust that analysis? Who knows? But I'd like to see it and make my job easier.

Something I'd love to do, but I have some privacy concerns, would be to set a personal AI assistant on a task to narrow down some vacation spots based on preferences and keep looking until something comes up to my liking. Not necessarily book a vacation, although at a later stage that will likely become the norm, but narrow them down so I can book it.

Maybe I would trust an AI assistant to tweak a concentrated liquidity range for me, or maybe even to jump from one pool to another, but only if I could set an array of pools it is allowed to play with, and if it couldn't send funds to an external wallet, and perhaps other more fine-grain parameters I would want to set. I would also keep an eye on its performance every once in a while.

Now... This would be the "first stage" of AI assistants. I'm pretty sure not long after we'll trust them so much that they'll order us food, medication, tooth paste, and pretty much any stock we might be missing in our homes. As well as pay our bills, mortgages, etc.

They'll likely even tell you (or maybe they won't and just do it), that it's time to refinance your credit at better conditions.

And, of course, if you can't find an old game you liked, that's fine. It'll use an AI agent to create one on-the-spot for you that feels like it.

They'll use some sensors and other AI agents to check your basic health stats and send you to doctor (maybe another AI?) if there's something wrong. Hopefully they won't send you to a doctor because your pulse increased after playing the video game. 😀

The downside is that about all this will know xAI, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, DeepSeek, Alibaba, etc.

I would let an AI pick my next vacation spot. It’s gotta be better than me staring at maps for hours. I would let AI decide who to fire in a startup job where I have limited funds to pay and I would let AI analyze my articles for Plagiarism

I would let an AI pick my next vacation spot. It’s gotta be better than me staring at maps for hours.

This would probably be a popular pick.

I would let AI decide who to fire in a startup job where I have limited funds to pay

That's an interesting choice. I wouldn't have expected that to be one of the options. What if the decision is fire everyone, hire me instead! 😄

I would let AI analyze my articles for Plagiarism

Yes, probably it would be a good use case. You know, AI chats have been accused of plagiarizing, because all of their output is a form of rehashed original content. The counter-argument is: isn't everyone's? We all learn basic things in time which we then use as if they are common knowledge. But eventually, they were said or discovered by someone. One more reason why IP makes little sense nowadays.

hahahaha then man, you're hired 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You're absolutely right about Plagiarism. It's basic logic, and maybe you might disagree with this one but I think it extends to AI music copyright fight.

The argument of the original creators is that AI is stealing their music and that it's never original but they all learn how to sing from someone else so that someone else can also say they stole from them and it continues.

I think AI should be given a break when it comes to it's training and output. It has been designed to behave just like humans so if AI is Plagiarizing so are we

Hahaha, I meant "hire me" as "hire the AI". 😁

Well, the counter-argument is we humans do the same. But the question is... is AI different in the way it learns? Or does it have lesser rights? It's certainly not human to have human rights.

Yeah, that's what people who take the side of AI say. Hard arguments on both sides.

lol, well you're one of the most honest people I've talked to about AI.

AI is certainly not human and can't take on human rights so yeah that's a solid point

  1. Check prices and availability of standard grocery items, place orders where I get the best deals and at times when I can receive a delivery (wait, can it receive deliveries)? Keep an inventory of when items are used and need replacing and repeat. Do the same for numerous other mundane boring jobs.
  2. Collate all my insurances, subscriptions, direct debits, search best deal accounts, automatically set up and move payments, negotiate directly with best providers. Tell me how much I've saved and deposit in a special kitty called "Hive".
  3. Organise some scheme for taking and fetching dry cleaning, visiting the library, car washing, going to the recycling centre, I don't know, maybe set up a Saturday job for a local teenager, negotiating price and transferring payment.
  4. Have oversight of the various household machines - robot cleaners etc and get them doing their thing at the least disruptive time for me.
  5. Manage my diary.

  1. Makes sense. We'll all end up doing that at some point. The downside is there will be a profile with what your daily spending is. Of course, if you use a credit card to pay for groceries, medicine, etc., there already is one.

  2. Nice one! Especially the fact that savings go to Hive.

  3. Hmm, that an interesting mix of very likely to automate activities (like fetching dry cleaning), with the others, where you'd rather want to get involved personally.

  4. I think everyone would love that!

  5. Sounds one of the reasonable first tasks for a personal AI assistant.

I would trust way more an ai than a human, they human element is riddled with imperfection... I would ask it to do trading for me on exchanges after a proper train 🤣 health advices as Ai would evaluate all options

So... you'd trust an AI not to hallucinate, right? I think they advance rapidly, but their results still need human oversight.

  1. Remind me if I am missing things when leaving the house. I find myself forgetting about certain things and I think having it remind me if I let it know ahead of time would be nice.
  2. Check the prices of groceries from stores, and let me know so I can make a good budget of expenses on food, and in an efficient manner.
  3. A reminder tasks that I need to do, and if I am taking too long to do things.

  1. That's a good one because many people forget things like keys or phone when they go out the door. Although, a little mental exercise as we do that would be better for us and our minds in the long run and considering the neuro-degenerative diseases from old age.
  2. I think most people will use an AI assistant for this one at some point.
  3. I think we already have that, so it would be maybe "an enhancement". I wonder if they'd be more like nagging us or bossing us if we take too long to do things... 😀

  1. Curating relevant information from reliable sources for me based on a set of parameters, when it comes to staying informed on what's happening in the world.

  2. Don't know quite right how to put it but the second one will revolve around this aspect of finance, in terms of matching income with necessary expenses, transfering savings to investment when the market opportunity presents itself, etc.

  3. Let it be a guide/mentor/teacher on the life goals I've set for myself.

  1. Would you rather it provide you the sources or a summary (even extended)?
  2. So you would trust it to make investment decisions for you (we are talking about the first generation AI assistants, not later on)
  3. Interesting one, even though teachers are among the category of workers susceptible to lose their jobs to AI.

  1. Mostly the source, could ask for the summary when I'm really interested in the topic.

  2. Generally, yes. Easier/faster to evaluate what works and what doesn't, and then make necessary adjustments. View it more as developing a second investment brain lol.

  3. Yes, I think AI can be the educational experience more personalized and progress could be measured non-linearly.

'2. For the time being I've seen some AI agents go haywire with investments. So when they really nailed it, may have been pure luck.
'3. I agree there is the potential on non-linear progress in this kind of educational experience.
