This is essentially the &quot;last mile&quot; problem in automation.<p>What&#x27;s the value of a fridge that warns you when you&#x27;re running low on something? Almost nothing. What&#x27;s the value of a fridge that prints out a shopping list based on what it currently has? Some. What&#x27;s the value of a fridge that automatically orders those things, has them delivered to your door and&#x2F;or restocked inside it? Significant.<p>Why? Because we&#x27;ve already automated the basic 25-75% of most tasks (somewhere in the 1920s-1980s). The modern value proposition is binary: having to think about &quot;it&quot; any amount vs not having to think about &quot;it&quot; at all.<p>Saving time at &quot;it&quot; is more or less worthless at this point, because we&#x27;ve <i>already</i> automated most of the raw time away.<p>Or in other words: time spent in mental context switching dominates, and can only be avoided via 100% automation.
