Tools are supposed to feel like extensions of us.
- Tools are supposed to feel like extensions of us[wt].
- A good tool literally feels like an extension of our body.
- Our minds are very, very good at establishing this illusion.
- When you learn to ride a bike, the bike feels, in a very real way, like an extension of your body.
- The edge of us is the edge of our directly manipulated intention.
- Boundaries evaporate between our bodies and the edge of the tool.
- The test of how good of a tool it is is, how fully does the boundary between the tool and you feel like it evaporates?
- A tool that is itself agentic can never have this evaporation of boundary; there is always the "other" to reason about[wu].
