In the age of AI, intention matters more than ever

As Ramadan moves into its final days, I keep noticing an interesting contrast with the way we build technology.

AI systems are designed around optimization.

Better prompts. Better outputs. More efficiency.

Everything is measured by how quickly we can produce a result.

Ramadan works in a very different way.

It creates space to ask a quieter question.

Not how to do something better.

But why we do it in the first place.

Technology keeps pushing us to improve performance.

Ramadan gently pushes us to examine intention.

And as our tools become more powerful, that difference may matter more than we think.

The real challenge may not only be building better systems.

It may be staying clear about the intention behind what we build, automate, and scale.

Curious how others think about this.

In a world that optimizes everything, do you find yourself thinking more about performance, or more about intention?
