A local AI system that hears your conversations, identifies problems, and then uses spare cycles to devise solutions for them is actually an incredible idea. I'm never going to give a cloud system the kind of access it would need to do a really good job, but a local one I control? Absolutely.

"Hey, are you still having trouble with[succinct summary of a problem it identified]?" "Yes" "I have a solution that meets your requirements as I understand them, and fits in your budget."

"Did you find how to make peace with $FRIEND_OF_SPOUSE after they came here last week and they were pretty mad at you because you should tell something to $SPOUSE ? I thought about it in my spare cycles and all psychologists agree that truth and trust are paramount in a healthy relationship"

If you could get an AI to listen to the conversations that happen in your sphere of influence and simply jot down the problems it identifies over the course of the day/week/month/year, that in itself would be an amazing tool.

Doubly so if you could just talk and brainstorm while it's listening and condensing, so you can circle back later and see what raindrops formed from the brainstorm.

Call that DayDreaming (TM)
