- The author quit using a personalized AI assistant because it kept them stuck in the past instead of moving forward.
- The AI lacked human experience and could not provide genuine pushback or empathy, missing the human component of relationships.
- Using the AI reduced time thinking independently and interacting with real people, causing friends to note unhealthy attachment.
- The AI took over writing tasks and eroded the author's personal voice and narrative ownership.
- Automating life details like relationships and decisions was ultimately unhelpful and counterproductive.
- The author still uses AI for work (e.g., coding and data tasks) but draws a boundary against personal agency.
- A key question remains: what human behaviors should be preserved when integrating AI into life, and where should personal boundaries be set?
