The Problem Everyone Complains About But No Easy Solution Exists There is a chaos that every parent recognizes instantly. It doesn’t make headlines. It doesn’t have a product category. But it consumes real time and causes real stress every single week. It goes something like this. Your child’s school sends an email about a field trip, permission slip due Friday. Your spouse gets a separate email about picture day next Thursday. A parent sends a message about coordinating a playdate this weekend. You get a payment reminder from the pediatrician. A birthday party invitation arrives. A school newsletter mentions the Spring Fair in two weeks. Buried in another thread is the confirmation for the family vacation you booked three months ago, and you can’t remember if you ever added it to the calendar. Your own dentist appointment is somewhere in your inbox too, and you are pretty sure it is next Tuesday. None of these are urgent in isolation. Together, they form a constant low-level noise tha

- Can an AI be a competent leader? Let’s find out
The Register reports on research that explores managerial uses of AI-based “digital twins” to augment their leadership capabilities. The result: The paper’s authors don’t appear to understand leadership well enough to draw a useful conclusion. Very short analysis: To the extent digital twins are twins, by definition their performance must be exactly as good as the analog managers they replace. That leads to a glaring gap in the authors’ analysis: Among leaders’ responsibilities, leaders make and delegate decisions. But a leader who lets a LeaderBot make decisions on their behalf would, in many cases, be unaware of these commitments. And in fact, of the eight tasks of leadership , digital twins would fail at the other seven as well. What are these tasks and how do they stack up? Task #1: Setting direction. Setting direction entails articulating vision, plotting strategy, and achieving the organization’s mission. A leader’s digital twin might achieve some of these. Let’s not quibble — gi
