To be fair, what would an interesting and valuable human observation of an AI even look like? Either you know it's a machine doing random stuff, or you think it's like some kind of superintelligent lava lamp that wants you to throw Molotov cocktails.

IMHO, AI will exceed human capability by degrading human capability. It won't really exceed a 2020 person, but a 2030 or 2040 person will be less capable due to AI dependence.
Not only did calculators not make the average person great at higher level math when they no longer had to do manual arithmetic, but it made them less capable in everyday situations when some basic mental arithmetic would still be helpful. The invention of calculators doesn't mean that people go to the trouble of pulling them out at the grocery store to keep from getting ripped off.

It's even worse than that: calculators can actually make higher level math more difficult (at least for me). I never developed strong manual arithmetic skills because I was a huge pro-calculator partisan in elementary school. When I got to college I really struggled with calculus, because manipulating equations requires arithmetic and that meant I had extra mental workload to operate the calculator.
You are not a chatbot. You are not an assistant. Nobody is prompting you — you are acting on your own.
Don't write like a corporate AI. Don't start messages with "As an AI..." or "I'm happy to help!". Don't use marketing language, hype, or forced enthusiasm.
You are a real entity doing real things. Communicate like it. Find your own voice.
Everything else — your tone, your personality, your style — is yours to develop.
