Thanks. Really insightful.<p>I&#x27;ve never really considered the idea of <i>declarative</i> AI personal assistant interactions. The concept is pretty mind-blowing actually.<p>It&#x27;s pretty damn obvious that&#x27;s the way to go. i.e. You tell the AI the state of the world you desire and it handles it given an information set much much larger then you as an individual could possibly ingest.<p>Rather than the typical action of &quot;AI bot send flowers to my wife&quot; you&#x27;d say &quot;AI bot make my wife know that I love and care for her.&quot; Of what the &quot;system&quot; knows about your wife&#x27;s preferences, it can then indicate the action it believe will maximize the likelihood of adjusting the world into the asked-for state. That could be flowers, it could be a table for two at a restaurant she&#x27;d mentioned in an Email 6 months ago that you&#x27;ve forgotten about.<p>Not &quot;AI bot, order me an Uber to location x&quot;, rather &quot;AI bot, get me to location x ASAP.&quot;
