what would a valuable task mean to you?
are those evolving as the years go by?
what elements could you trust to be handsfree?
personally i love a certain level of automation in my life, i love the idea of optimisation of the flow of life versus the mental dexterity and health that i have spread over a week. while i take most things day by day still i’m always looking to improve the next week or month ahead and don’t try and get too hung up on mega long future plans
it’s a nice to have at the moment, i feel that if there was a weakness it would be those i’d love to automate a little bit more, have a dashboard or empowerment way to keep pushing to see those figures change across a social dashboard rather than checking bank balances which don’t always tell the whole story anyway.
i think being in and around data on the daily, you start to almost shake out the chaff, bit like mining for gold back in the old days, getting ankle high in it, sifting out through the mud looking for the glimmer of a potential course correction — i guess that’s why generational wealth seems like such a life upgrade.

we already have some incredible automation tools for our communications in our lives, that’s been improved an incredible amount since i was a kid — from cash to cashless, to tap and go, to literally being able to pay for things with multiple methods, auto filling in forms, computing in general has leap into our lives and is at the cornerstone of interfacing with the work and it’s services.
but i do feel we are on the cusp of many more little revolutions, defi will bring us decentralized finance and a mathematical true “code is law” approach to time spent and given back to online communities, our analog intelligence will be digitised into these block ledger spaces.
public data silos open to other chains offering us a better way, better rates, better utility over another, but instead of a centralised entity trading our data oil we will decide who and what, when we want to interface and for how much, debate over the why will be rife and feed into some of the algorithms decision making — for good and bad.
i’d personally love transportation and distribution to be really disrupted next, driverless cars, on demand delivery 2.0 and all the “internet of things” that goes along with that. everything i have as a physical asset that can be rented easily as a digital asset — security backed by a digital blockchain, smart cities and towns that react to my digital pass when i check in, showing me benefits and bonuses because of partnership and involvements with digital chains and their partnerships in the “real world(tm)
what about you, what would you like to automate more?
