I Gave My Life over to Meta's A.I. Agent and Was Blown Away

I handed the wolf a set of keys to my hen-house and was blown away!

Why, in a million years, would I trust Meta with ANY aspect of my life, let alone allow it to drive my whole digital presence?

Whenever I try to make 'AI agents' do anything it seems like a struggle for even basic tasks. How on earth are people having it do anything successfully, let alone really complex tasks like loading and navigating a website to buy tickets?

This article just sounds like an Ad for Muse. It's painful reading and just sounds awful.

  >  Ten minutes earlier, the A.I. agent had called my dental insurer, given them my member I.D., answered a security question and waited on hold before transferring me to the representative

I have been willing to pay a lot of money for a mobile AI tool that can make outbound calls for me.

I dread making medical appointments or other reservations. Didn't know Muse could do this, will have to give it a try.
