Unnamed Work Becomes Weather

Unnamed work becomes weather.

It just happens.

People feel it. People complain about it. People plan around it. Nobody owns it.

This is true in teams, households, operations, governance, and AI workflows.

The first act of control is often naming.

Name the recurring burden
Name the decision point
Name the review
Name the handoff
Name the risk
Name the evidence trail

Once something has a name, it can have an owner.

The Problem With One Giant AI Assistant

After 5+ years of experimenting with AI, one of my clearest lessons is this:

The answer is probably not one giant assistant.

I know. It’s a bit tragic, but you’ve tried it, I’ve tried it, and it doesn’t really work.

Eventually this will improve. But as of this writing, whenever you try to make one AI do everything, it eventually becomes a very articulate junk drawer.

It can summarize. It can draft. It can analyze. It can plan. It can hallucinate a project management structure with great confidence and light jazz energy.
