There are only so many interactions with synthetic agents humans can maintain daily; way below the respondents' capacity for answering. In addition to the qualitative ceiling, human reasoning and execution bandwidths are also limited, which could result in a tendency to delegate more reasoning tasks to synthetic intelligence. Rather than optimising for the efficiency of reasoning, we might find ourselves maximising the human experience while following suggested trajectories or idiosyncratic agency. This pressure towards heightened human experience and unique areas of expertise, in the short term, may result in increased attention to the physical world, human-to-human interactions, and creative work. However, even these aspects could eventually be mechanistically replaced and improved as synthetic intelligence evolves and uncovers the biological bases of human experience.
