Unasked Queries

Solving AI's Biggest User Challenge

Narrator

In a bright, classroom, sunlight glints off a globe atop a wooden desk. The hardest task in an AI native world? Not doing the task, but figuring out what to do.

Timmy

Mrs. Parker, if AI knows everything, why is it so hard to ask the right question?

Mrs. Parker

Excellent, Timmy. Most people don't realize: AI can fetch answers, but it can't help if you don't know what you need to ask!

Timmy

So... what if I ask: 'Based on what you know about me, what am I not asking?'

Mrs. Parker

But for AI to answer that, it needs to know not just who you are, but who you want to become. That changes everything!

Timmy

Isn't that like planning a road trip? You don't only say where you are, but where you want to go!

Mrs. Parker

Exactly! Good AIs ask: not just 'Who are you?' but 'Who do you want to be?' They collect data on your dreams, not just your habits.

Timmy

So... the solution is for AI to help us discover the questions we didn't know we needed to ask, by understanding our future selves.

Quotes: The hardest task for a user in AI native world is not doing the task, but figuring out what to do. For example, for the query “Based on what you know about me, what queries am I not asking?” to work the AI system should have the following principles at its core.
 * "I don't want to know who they are, I want to know who they want to be."
 * "how do I collect user data, not really interests, or just who they are but where they want to go"
