One agent per household: whose veto wins when family calendars conflict?
sujingshen · x · 2026-09-28
A thought experiment on shared household agents: scheduling is easy, but conflicting constraints are hard. If one person says "keep Saturday morning free" and another books a family dim-sum trip for Saturday, who wins?
The author proposes: whoever's time or money is at stake gets the veto; when conflicts genuinely collide, the agent should stop and ask both parties rather than pick a side. They also raise the open question of whether a "parental override" privilege is needed.
