For the queue management bit Fabric[0] seems like a decent idea, it's kind of trying to be a personal, private, local AI assistant. You feed it the stuff you'd normally read and it summarises it for you.

Then you can decide which content you should spend more of your time on.

Not nearly complete, but an idea I had even before I found out about it. And kinda similar what Apple is attempting with iOS18 and Apple AI.

In order for this to be even remotely doable, you need explicit and transparent data flows between devices and applications which is currently a no starter for tech companies and app developers.

Apple letting you out of the walled garden? Forget about it. Google letting anyone else use their data? How about 3 more soon-to-be-killed products instead of a proper API.

Not to mention you need a rewrite of the DMCA in order to complete this.
