Yea totally - like those Black Mirror-esque (and South Park?) videos of people having AI talk to their partner about deep relationship stuff.

We just built a mechanical parts AI search engine [1], and a lot of what it does it just get the best options clustered together, and then give the user the power to do the deeper engineering work of part selection in a UI that makes more sense for the task than a chat UI.

Feels like this pattern of "narrow to just the good options, but give the user agency / affordances" is far better.

> people having AI talk to their partner about deep relationship stuff. I have read stories about people using AI to write their Tinder messages, eulogies, etc.

Gives me a weird/strange feeling.
