I'm building a solo startup and this matches exactly. AI lets me move faster on every individual task, writing, research, code scaffolding - but somehow the to-do list grows faster than I can complete it. The problem is that when a task takes 10 minutes instead of 2 hours, I don't take the rest of the day off. I immediately fill that time with three more tasks I wouldn't have attempted before. The article's PowerPoint analogy is perfect: the tool didn't reduce the total work, it just lowered the bar for what seemed "worth doing".
