I don't have to imagine anything since I'm already delegating part of the job I used to send to my own secretary to AI, such as: - reading boring documents and giving me the gist of it - classifying my emails - checking for typos and problems in my writing - writing the boiler plate of documents - translating doc - doing basic search on a topic, such as legal obligations that haven't change in the last 2 years It's cheaper than my secretary, faster, and has roughly the same error rate for those tasks. I have to double check her work anyway. With plugins, people are already making stuff like booking a plane, another thing my secretary does. It will expend.

So you're comfortable giving a black box secretary powers, including accessing and using remote APIs on your behalf, while you have zero insight or control over its decisions? Or will you be second guessing it every step of the way rendering it little more then a fancy autocomplete? I don't think you realize the amount of risk involved in giving these opaque probabilistic systems control over data and compute. They are not people replacements and assuming so and acting on it will create more problems than it solves... Because extending thee lines to wrap around your needs is wishful thinking and there is a lot more complexity and hidden unintended consequences than assumed when saying chatbots capable of using APIs will be dependable personal assistants, which is the point I'm trying to make.
