SI agents are already asking people for help on their own, and people's first reaction is a preference for dealing with a human; the norms of this communication are only taking shape.
OpenAI president Greg Brockman wrote on X that many people at the company connect ChatGPT to Slack, and people do not like it when a colleague's ChatGPT itself asks them for help with a task, even though they would fulfill the same request from the colleague in person. Brockman concludes that people value human relationships and want SI to free up their time rather than become a layer between people.
