People underestimate how much judgment goes into scheduling and email. Who is priority? What tone fits? What should wait? AI can help, but a human still needs to understand context. It is assistant software, not a full assistant yet.

For me, AI agents are useful for low-risk tasks: summarizing long threads, creating task lists, drafting follow-ups and finding open time slots. I do not let them negotiate or make decisions. The time savings are real if you keep boundaries.

I trust AI to draft and organize, but not to send or schedule without review. Calendar mistakes can annoy real people. Email mistakes can damage relationships. Until the tools are more reliable, I want approval before anything goes out.
