A man camping in southern Utah woke up to three urgent messages from the AI telling him to get back to town, even though he had not set it to watch the weather. He left, and says he would have been stuck in the desert otherwise.
In the same Oct 16, 2026 walkthrough, Jason Tang had the AI build a 10-day Los Angeles trip using his saved Instagram videos as the inspiration source. The AI generated a daily itinerary, compared hotels on Trip.com, checked flight options, and attempted to book a Getty Center visit.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A forum user gave the AI the days his family could go to a Christmas season show that runs all through December. The AI went through the ticket site day by day, found the seats, and ranked the options by price and seat placement, which he says helped the family pick the best tickets.
A testimonial graphic quotes someone: 'my first money with someone — connected my email, asked to find all flights I had in last 5 years, find the ones that were delayed or cancelled.' The agent mined years of inbox history for compensation claims.
In the same Vergecast clip, a host describes the AI connected to his Google Calendar: seeing a media dinner party in his evening, the AI advised taking a city bike instead of the subway because it would be faster, and pinged him at 9:20 to leave in time for a 9:30 arrival. The hosts frame it as the AI being proactive to the point of feeling directive.
Stuck in Manhattan with three hours to fill after a drop-off, Eric planned the afternoon with Jarvis by voice while driving. He gave it a mood instead of a destination — a break from technology, maybe by looking at art about technology — and it weighed a museum, galleries and an observation deck, then came back with a walking route through Chelsea galleries. At the end of the call he told it to put the route in his calendar, and it did.
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.
Ahead of a Nov 14 Disney cruise, he credits the AI with tracking the staggered booking milestones — excursions opening in August, online check-in, and a late-night Royal Gathering character meetup — so none of the windows are missed.
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.
A man applying for a UK visa needed his travel history from many years back. He had saved a filled in form from the last application but could not remember where. He asked the AI to find it. The AI worked out possible dates and file types, then went through his files checking each one.
