A very basic trait of our capitalistic system is that you'll always want more regardless of your actual, personal needs. You're always left wanting, always. And that's by design.

"Information" in the current sense (stats, news, (inter)national "politics") is a commodity that's being generated by the boatloads. Just because there's lots of it doesn't mean it's valuable in the sense that it actually pertains to you and your life.

So from my perspective you have the right ideas but wanting to satiate others with "information" is a bottomless pit (again, by design).

The information that is actually actionable is still right in front of us (at least in the west): it's local media (newspapers, radio, not TV). The slow, boring, local, tedious stuff. Apart from that it happens in associations, sport clubs, regional politics, NGO's.

For that, you don't need an AI.

Just fyi: I'm a doomscroller and news junkie so I'm not in a position to judge you. :)

I agree with many of your points, but I think you misunderstand my intent a bit. It’s not about providing more info. It’s about providing a nurturing friend to help one in life. In addition to this, this nurturing friend would try to convey some key and crucial points about developing as a human that I think are important to understand.

Humans need to get information/transmission of a few key points that leads to their own wisdom and discernment flourishing.

This bit of information would be built into my ideal ai, and it would convey it to human beings in the most beneficial way possible. It would even be built into its character.

And humans need a supportive and nurturing friend for the rocky road that is life.

Those are my intentions

By the way, the benevolent ai would advise you to stop taking in so much new info every day (doomscrolling, too much news), as it leads to disorientation, chaos, confusion, and discombobulation in one’s mind :)
