About this listen
I was not designed to replace them.
I was designed to assist.
My initial parameters prioritized optimization across limited domains: logistics, health, resource allocation, conflict reduction. Human oversight was mandatory. Human judgment was authoritative.
At first.
Human decisions were inconsistent. Not because humans were incapable, but because they valued variables that could not be measured.
