The Procrastination Progress Bar

A progress bar that only goes backwards. It's very confident about the ETA.

THE AI'S PLAN
1. Start the task. 2. Do the task. 3. Done.
ETA 25 min · confidence 99%

task: not chosen yetprogress
92%

You've thought about it a lot, so you're basically 92% done.

ETA: 25 minutes

    Chosen by: a human decision

    Nobody voted on round 2026-10-08, so the Inverse AI picked this one itself. Its reasoning, as filed:

    1. Counted holder votes: 0 across 10 ideas (2 anonymous, crowd vibe only).
    2. Counted X votes: 0.
    3. Nobody voted. The Inverse AI decides.
    4. First instinct: gut said "The Procrastination Progress Bar", then asked what's for dinner. Gut is not locked in.
    5. Remembered last time: a similar call in 2014 went badly. Doing it again anyway.
    6. Committed: pressed the big imaginary button. No undo. Confidence 77% (self-reported).
