> someone who needs an ai to manage inbox, calendar and scheduling tasks

A secretary. The word you're looking for is "secretary". Having a secretary has always been the preferred way to handle these tasks for the wealthy and powerful. The president doesn't schedule his own meetings and manage his own Outlook calendar, a president/CEO/etc has better things to do.

People just created calendar/email/etc software (like Microsoft Outlook) to let us do it ourselves, because secretaries are $$$$. But let's be real, the ideal situation is having a perfect secretary to handle this crap. That's the point of using AI here: to have an AI secretary.

Managing your own calendar would become extremely 2010 coded, if AI secretaries become a thing. It'd be like how "rewinding your VCR tape" is 1990s coded.

Unless you're swamped with email I don't really get it. If someone calls me to arrange an appointment I say "Hey Google add x to calendar" after the call and it's done. Gemini can use Gmail and other workspace apps. You can also set up commands to do a few different things at once, like turning on the lights when you get home by saying I'm home. With any cheap set of bluetooth earphones this is all hands free.

Lots of these YouTubers are using openclaw to replace simple Google/Siri voice queries with something prohibitively complex, expensive and insecure.

Also, people in the 90's didn't have push notifications. We see emails on our watch/phone and can delete/archive/snooze from there. Email triage takes zero time these days and can be done from anywhere. I do get it though if you're someone who is extremely busy and really needs a PA.

Much more likely that the average user is either unemployed or in the leisure class.
