Recommend actions
not information

There’s a lot of talk about the new Pulse from openai. Custom reports and news and what not, each day. Information just for you.

At the same time there’s a growing undercurrent of negative feelings about recommendation feeds in social media. The timeline is a dark rabbit hole. The algos may be changing our culture. Bubbles.

The common pattern here is the machines are personalizing and recommending Information.

I don’t need more information. I need nudges when something in my life is getting off track. Subtle reinforcement when I’m making good choices for today and the future. Suggestions for things I should do to improve life which I might never have considered.

Where’s the AI that understands my world and the algo which recommends actions not more information to consume?
