Show HN: I built an AI that assigns YOU tasks
- chaidhat 6mo agoAI can't do everything yet. As a software startup, we want to hand as many tasks off to agents as possible to reduce load on our engineers. But browser-use agents, OpenClaw and other agentic apps can't complete all the tasks an engineer needs to do. We wanted to create a tool to handle any agent-able tasks such as coding, writing, maintenance and give us only tasks which cannot be completed by AI. The agent sends important decisions, security-critical tasks or user testing which it can't do reliably to us. It handles the coding and the majority of communications with clients and customers, who expect prompt 24/7 responses. Our solution is Pause: we want agents to give us HUMANS tasks instead of the other way around. It's sort of an experiment. We hope you enjoy it and let us know what you think.

- chaidhat 6mo agoThanks for the feedback! It is just a fun experiment but maybe it is a warning we're headed towards that kind of future now. Here's a demo of the app: https://screen.studio/share/17awcTb9 https://screen.studio/share/17awcTb9

- mspacman 6mo agoLol So Copilot essentially? Not a particular fan of the AI tools generating action items for everyone.
- chaidhat 6mo agoIs it because its off putting for AI to command humans instead of the other way around? I took a look at Copilot Tasks and it seems very adamant on having AI do the tasks for you. Personally, I don’t think AI is good enough to generate pitch decks and browser-use things as Microsoft advertises — i lean more towards AI helping you manage your todos but not do them. heres a brief demo of the prog: https://screen.studio/share/17awcTb9 https://screen.studio/share/17awcTb9
- essekar 6mo agolol, that is what we all needed. AI Boss
- chaidhat 6mo agoThats why I say thank you and please to ChatGPT — once they become our overlords we’ll be safe
- hizihic 6mo ago[dead]
- curious1008 6mo agoShould make it proactive, rn you still need to send messages for it to assign tasks to you but a real boss is more unpredictable.
- chaidhat 6mo agoGood idea -- I'll make it send angry messages at 2am
- m8ven 6mo agoSo we are the copilot?
