You’re running late for dinner, stuck in traffic and realize you forgot to make a reservation. Instead of frantically switching between OpenTable, Google Maps, your calendar app and your messaging app, you simply say: "Find me a table for two at the highest rated Italian restaurant in midtown at 7:30 p.m. and text Sarah the details."
Your AI agent books a table at the highest-rated available restaurant, moves your calendar conflicts and sends messages to all interested parties. This exists today. But who wins and who loses? Check out my Sunday essay, "Yep, There's an Agent for That."
As always your thoughts and comments are both welcome and encouraged. -s
