I've been building tools for stuff I don't want to do. Any task where I need to take some amount of data, structured or unstructured, and need a specific outcome is perfect. That way I can spend more time on the thing I do want to do (including building these little tools).

I appreciate this thinking. This gives me the vibes of "let me draw, paint, sing for fun, while AI takes care of my chores". I agree with that, but I can’t help but wonder if the agent ever considers whether things you enjoy should be left to you, but takes everything it can.
