A Santa Clarita Valley Signal commentary compares an AI fantasy game’s overly vague quest text (“help the village”) with a construction subcontractor’s similarly vague work order (“handle the electrical”). In both cases, the lack of specifics led to aimless waiting or wandering and a failure to complete meaningful work.
WHO:A guy playing an AI-driven fantasy game and his cousin, a construction project manager; a construction subcontractor.
WHAT:The story describes how vague instructions—unclear tasks and success criteria—caused paralysis in both a game quest and real electrical work on a job site.
