Would You Trust an Agent With Your Life?

Zuckerberg says a personal AI agent will improve your relationships, health, career, and finances — design a real experiment to find out if that is true for you.

Your Hypothesis

Complete this sentence: 'If I delegate ___ to an AI agent for two weeks, then ___.' Be as specific as possible — name the task and the result you expect.

One Variable, One Control

Name the single thing you will change (the variable) and one thing you will keep exactly the same (the control). Without a control, you cannot know what caused any result.

Variable — what changes

Control — what stays fixed

Measure and Predict

How will you know at the end of two weeks whether it worked? Name one concrete measure. Then mark your prediction on the spectrum: where do you honestly expect to land?

Complete failure

Surprising success

The Falsifying Result

Describe the one specific outcome that would prove your hypothesis completely wrong. Be precise — vague falsifiers are not real falsifiers.

The Deeper Fear

Look back at step 4. Are you more afraid the experiment will fail — or that it will succeed and you will have to admit the agent does something better than you? Write one word that names your real feeling, then explain why that word in one sentence.

Why that word?

Discuss Tell your partner your falsifying result from step 4 — does hearing it aloud change how much you believe your original hypothesis?
