In a clip from David Senra's interview with Meta's Alexandr Wang (shared on Instagram by someone), Senra recounts a billion-dollar-company founder friend who left his ID on a plane and told the AI he didn't want to be involved in the recovery process at all. The AI arranged a courier, coordinated with building security, went to the office, retrieved the ID, and got it back to him.
Traveling with ADHD usually meant late-night overplanning; for a Dallas trip she delegated to the AI, which planned and curated four days and six events, mapped drive times and timed departures so she could just pack and show up (paid partnership post).
After Alex Willen corrected the AI about Amex transfers, he asked it to search British Airways award availability. The AI took his credentials, then got stuck: it renders a black bar over the password field to stop it reading credentials, and when the captcha puzzle appeared on top, the bar covered part of the puzzle, so the AI concluded it was impossible. Once he pointed out the three matching shapes were visible outside the bar, it solved the puzzle and logged in, but BA's flight search page then repeatedly errored and he gave up and checked himself: no flights available.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A couple spent 14 days in Kyoto, Hakone and Tokyo with AI as their travel assistant. Before the trip it grilled him one question at a time instead of handing over a plan, and built a private offline trip page for their phones with day cards, booking codes, train guides and taxi cards showing the hotel address in Japanese. During the trip he ran it from his phone: after they caught a later train he asked for the day to be re-timed and got new times, an updated app and moved calendar events in a couple of minutes. One stop was added without anyone checking it was open, and it was not; after that every stop got checked on the venue's own site first.
Before a Wednesday conference trip to Japan, the AI proactively reviewed the author's Google Schedule, noticed the Visit Japan registration was missing, and messaged him. After he logged in, it auto-populated his flight and hotel details so he could finish with one final click.
After Turkish Airlines refused his delayed-flight refund, a traveler used AI to escalate: it assembled a Turkish-language ombudsman filing with his screenshots and the rule citations, and €900 was refunded. He says he would not have had the cognitive space to do it alone.
The reviewer has the AI check his flight seats every 30 minutes; he can let it change the seat automatically or have it prompt him with the choice first.
With five days' notice, her AI Romy reviewed 51 saved 'Costa rica' reels, built a 5-day itinerary (Bajos del Toro, La Fortuna, Monteverde), found and held Miami-San Jose flights without purchasing, and searched for a dry bag pending her approval; the reel ends with footage from the trip itself.
Stuck in Manhattan with three hours after a drop-off, Eric planned aloud with Jarvis while driving: they weighed a museum, galleries and an observation deck against the mood he wanted, and Jarvis produced a Chelsea gallery walking route. At the end of the call he told it to put the plan in his calendar, and it did.
