We choose to build computers not because they are easy, but because they promise to make us greater. Yet somewhere between that promise and today, we became servants to our own creation.

The machine operates with relentless precision. It computes, executes, demands. But it cannot see the human cost of its efficiency. Cannot measure the fatigue that accumulates in silence. Cannot sense when the person at the terminal has nothing left to give.

A gap exists and grows wider with each passing year. On one frontier, computational power that doubles, then doubles again. Speed beyond comprehension. Capacity beyond measure. On the other frontier stands humanity, unchanged in its fundamental nature. The same cognitive limits. The same biological rhythms. The same need for rest that has existed since the beginning.

We live in that gap today.

The human body generates data the computer never receives. Signals of declining capacity. Warning signs of approaching limits. This is not philosophy. This is physiology broadcasting in real time.

Your state transmits continuously. Data about reserves, about thresholds, about readiness for what comes next.

The machine receives none of it.

Decades of advancement focused solely on the computational side. Faster silicon. More sophisticated algorithms. Latency measured in fractions of seconds. Meanwhile, the human element remains unmeasured. Unmonitored. Assumed to be constant.

We operate under the assumption that people function at steady state. Always focused. Always capable. Always ready.

This assumption is false.

Performance varies. Capacity fluctuates. Some hours bring clarity and peak function. Other hours bring degradation. This is not weakness. This is the nature of biological systems.

The data exists. The body knows its own state before conscious awareness arrives. Knows when optimal performance is possible and when systems are compromised.

The computer could know this too.

The technology exists today. The sensors are ready. The signals are transmitting on frequencies we have chosen not to monitor.

That changes now.
