A sufficiently smart todo list wouldn’t just let you check off items. It would open up exactly the apps you need to complete the task, and no more.

Could you actually do this? The AI would have to read your mind in a sense. But given a database of many completed tasks, it might learn that “send note to X” meant opening up an email, while “calculate Y” involves a quick spreadsheet.

A v0 might just be defining a list of apps (Gmail, Terminal, etc) and then assigning them as icons to each task as you create it. Then you can sort todos by app context and execute a bit more mindlessly. That would also create training data.

This sort of feels like an OS level thing. Right now we have lots of apps, messages, and todos floating around, but the context is entirely on the user to put them together. Even something as simple as “you usually open these two apps together” could be inferred from the OS log.
