Networked humans today have a far higher information intake than the average person a few generations ago, and worry about far more things -- by several orders of magnitude. And almost none of that is actionable nor even relevant

But if you could train your own little AI assistant to filter and distill for you, wouldn't you retain your agency? Wouldn't your filtering and distillation power be amplified by your agent?
Not if the algo tries to infer what you want (e.g. most algos assume you want to waste more time online), instead of putting you in charge of defining the rules, the objective that is to be optimized. Having your current tendencies amplified by an algo is the opposite of agency.

how are we going to harvest dopamine release tho? we need that to build habbits according to most mobile app devs so we could get them more engaged/likely to click or buy. FB likes wisdom of the crowds, but that seems ironic when you have fiduciary responsibilities.

Not only that. Today most of them are actively trying to optimize for an objective that's the opposite of user-control: clicks, watch time, etc. The user isn't the goal, but a product to mine and sell to others.

It might depend on the use case. Getting informed either stems from sheer intellectual curiosity, in which case your existing interests shouldn't be part of the equation, or you're digging/researching into something and then "You might also like" is a valuable feature.

Prior confirmation from the user that they're actively interested in a particular topic may be an ethical enough trigger to switch on "AI prompted suggestions" mode.

a) What you want b) You define the rules c) What's best for you wrt: 1. Happiness (psychology) 2. Growth/development (pedagogy) 3. Mental health & well-being… As AI and those fields advance, we could have very beneficial algorithms, but does any business (model) allow it?
