Find Manhattan foot doctors who take my insurance, with phone numbers

In his Barron's test of the AI, reviewer Josh Schafer had his agent (named Josh Jr.) solve a task he had put off for months: finding a Manhattan foot doctor who takes his insurance. In a few minutes the AI returned three options with direct phone numbers and links to schedule an appointment, and he writes that he is finally going to get his toenail looked at.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

My agent plans my workouts from my calendar and my own results, and I cancelled 20 dollars of subscriptions

A man set the AI to pull each week's workouts from training providers he used to pay for, since they post the sessions free but late. The AI checks his calendar for when he can train, offers him two options a day, then records what he actually did and how it felt, and uses that history to scale future sessions. A few weeks in it is saving him 20 dollars a month in subscriptions.

I built my brother a way to text, browse and play with two head switches

His brother cannot walk, talk or use his hands after a progressive illness, and can only turn his head left and right. Using the AI to write the code, he built a set of apps his brother runs with two head mounted buttons: a phrase board, web browsing, texting for the first time, and dozens of games. The project became a nonprofit that gives the kits away.

It found me a family doctor, booked it, then booked my referrals too

He had no family doctor and dreaded the admin of finding one. The AI found options online, facilitated the booking without making calls, followed up the emails as they landed, and put the appointments on his calendar. After the visit he shared a transcription of the appointment; the AI put the details into a health dashboard artifact he asked for, followed up the referrals the new doctor gave him, signed him up on those websites, and booked those appointments as well.
