I've been using AI for research, and I have a few Grok bots doing simple tasks for me to help with productivity. It is an amazing tool. However, is anyone else finding that AI, overall, is creating more work, not less? For instance, granting my own bots permission and access (for cybersecurity reasons, I don't let them run loose) requires some effort. But the biggest problem is fielding email and text inquiries from other people's AI agents. Is anyone else getting absolutely pummeled with sales and collaboration pitches from non-human sources on behalf of humans? Like, what are we doing? Working smarter, not harder, should apply to bots too, no?
