Our summary
This project connects an AI assistant to Jev, an AI tool that chooses from options rather than writing an answer. People use it to save time and money by letting Jev handle simple choices, like sorting incoming messages or finding saved instructions, while the main assistant handles complex writing.
The software connects using an API key, which is a private access code kept safely on your computer. It sends a list of options to the decision tool, and the tool picks the best choice. To protect privacy, the system removes sensitive details before sending any text for review.
This setup is useful for people managing busy AI assistants, but it requires careful testing. The authors recommend running new features silently to check the choices before allowing the software to act. If the decision tool breaks, the system is built to ignore it and continue using its original settings.
Key takeaways
- Test new decision tools by logging their choices silently before letting them control the software.
- Always measure results, as the authors found that some summarized conversation handoffs actually lost important information.
- Set up safe defaults so your assistant keeps working normally if the decision tool stops responding.
