After a founder left his ID on a plane, the AI autonomously arranged

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.

Tracked business-class flights from Los Angeles to Rome under $2,000 one-way and

A creator who flies business class but refuses typical prices named her AI 'Miles' and asked it to track business-class fares from Los Angeles to Rome under $2,000 one-way, with flexibility for SFO or SEA. Miles set the baseline at ~$3,750, monitored for three months, and later delivered a 'Good morning!' briefing with five Icelandair fares under $2k from SEA and SFO to Rome.

The AI proactively caught a travel-date mismatch: questioned whether his Singapore-to-Toronto flight was

Leo Batistella (Portuguese-language creator) showed a chat where his AI listed his itinerary — Oct 9 Bali to Shanghai, Oct 10 Shanghai to Singapore (early morning), Oct 11 connecting in Singapore to Toronto without leaving the airport — then questioned whether the Singapore-Toronto leg was Oct 11 or Nov 11, noting his Toronto hotel is booked Nov 11-15. Without being asked, the agent checked his ticket and confirmed the flight is in October, not November.

Skift tested agents booking hotel rooms: The AI failed to retrieve rates and returned a 'Something went wrong' message on Hilton's Times Square page even after logging in with loyalty credentials, while Instinct succeeded across Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt. Hilton says it isn't blocking agents — the failures read as technical.

The AI ran their 14 day Japan trip live, re-timing days from his phone

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.
