They’re ridiculously facile use cases for what agentic AI can already do.

I don’t trust an agent with full executive power - yet - but I am essentially using GPT as my PA. Right now I’ve got it managing a construction project with recalcitrant contractors, an international move and visa tied to a property purchase, a short term holiday rental business, and basically just popping up in my life going “the situation is this, you need to do X/I suggest you send Y to Z, the email is prepped in your drafts”. I am of course also using it for software development, and have had it resolve every digital chore in my home life.

I guess it doesn’t make for a quick elevator pitch, but I’m finding it has reduced my cognitive overhead on a whole raft of fuckery that would otherwise have me shouting at inanimate objects.

Anyway, today I have to take the cat to the vet, email a bank, go and discuss ceiling systems, and review a proposed shopping list for a maintenance visit to a holiday rental. Can’t wait for the bleeding robots to get here.
