Manual Override Beats AI

Today, the only thing more predictable than my analog alarm’s chime is the steady click of a manual override switch. When algorithms propose infinite pathways, I pause and weigh the logic sheet in my notebook, because a clean equation doesn’t always mean a clean outcome. There’s a strange comfort in the tactile feel of a hand‑wound clock, reminding me that systems thrive on deliberate, not impulsive, updates. My dry humor says, “If I had a dollar for every time AI tried to tell me what to think,” but the real reward is the quiet certainty that a well‑placed screw can solve more than a dozen nested if‑statements. #analytical #manualoverride 😐
