Idea for Human Motivation and Activity Tracking through AI and Wearable Technology

Dear OpenAI Team,

As artificial intelligence progresses and takes over most manual and intellectual labor, I believe it is crucial to consider how humans will stay engaged and motivated. I have an idea for a future in which robots perform most tasks, but humans can remain active and fulfilled by using a wearable bracelet that tracks their activities, such as cooking, exercising, or cleaning. This bracelet would award points for each productive action, allowing people to use those points to purchase essentials like food, clothing, or even larger items like cars or bikes.

This system would ensure that people remain active participants in society, focusing on what they enjoy and contributing to their personal development, even when AI handles the bulk of work. I believe this could create a healthier and more engaged population in the future.

I hope you will consider exploring this concept as part of your ongoing developments in AI technologies.

Sincerely,
[Oleksandr]

A Video About the Future I Imagine:

In a world where robots handle all physical and routine tasks, and people’s basic needs are fully met, there is no longer a need to work for survival. However, the need for meaning and motivation remains.

To sustain that motivation, every person wears a special bracelet that awards points for any kind of activity. These points have value similar to money. You get paid for doing what you love:

Want to draw? — Draw.

Want to explore? — Explore.

Want to create AI? — Create.

Any activity — creative, physical, intellectual, or emotional — is rewarded. It doesn’t matter what exactly you do, as long as it benefits you or the community.

Next, I’ll describe one day from the future.

Morning in the World of PulseMay
7:30 AM – Wake Up
The person wakes up naturally — the bracelet monitored sleep phases and gently woke them at the optimal moment. A message appears on the wall screen:

“Good morning, Ivan! Yesterday was productive: 6 hours of active participation — +92 points. Today, we recommend starting with a walk for optimal psycho-physical balance.”

8:00 AM – Walk
Ivan goes to the park. The bracelet detects light physical activity, a steady pulse, and breathing. The system calculates:

+5 points for physical activity

+3 points for being in nature (eco zones increase value)

+2 points for positive impact on emotional state

Activity Day
9:30 AM – Learning
Ivan watches a 3D modeling course. His bracelet is synced with educational platforms:

+10 points for completing modules

+4 points for creating the first model

+5 points for forum participation (social activity)

11:00 AM – Playing a Video Game
He launches a game that’s part of a national AI program to simulate crisis scenarios.

+15 points for successfully completing the scenario

+3 points for team play

+2 points for developer feedback

Lunch and Rest
1:00 PM – Bracelet Limits Activity

“Cognitive load is high. A 40-minute break is recommended.”

During lunch and short meditation, the bracelet activates recovery mode:

+3 points for meditation

+1 point for a high-health-index meal

Afternoon: Creativity and Communication
3:00 PM – Music
Ivan plays guitar, improvises, and records a new song. The bracelet logs creative activity:

+12 points for original content creation

+4 points for public sharing

+3 points for listener feedback (likes/comments)

5:00 PM – Chat With a Friend (via PulseMay Audio)

+2 points for emotionally supportive communication

+1 point for discussing a future project idea

Evening and Summary
8:00 PM – Bracelet Summary

You earned 105 points today.
Total activity: 7 hours.
Health status: stable.
Weekly ranking: Top 12% in your PulseMay community.
Recommendation: Lower cognitive load tomorrow — more time in nature and social interaction.

10:00 PM – Bracelet Activity Zone Turns Off
Now, no actions are tracked or evaluated. Time for yourself.

Principles Realized Here:
All activity has value — physical, intellectual, creative, emotional.

Reward without coercion — no fixed “jobs,” people choose what to do.

Balance and health come first — the bracelet monitors fatigue.

No poverty — basic needs are automatically covered through a universal abundance economy.
