You imagined AI as a quiet butler that would handle the busywork so you could step away from the screen and actually live.
Instead it turned into a very eager, very capable collaborator that never sleeps… and suddenly you’re the bottleneck.
Every half-formed idea, every “what if,” every creative spark now has a high-leverage outlet, so the urge to feed it becomes constant.
It’s less “AI will free my time” and more “AI turned my brain into a firehose and now I need 16h longer days just to aim it.”
