You’re saying you’ve found a useful assistant for menial tasks. That’s not consistent with the strong claims you were making upthread.

My claim is that the "useful assistant for menial tasks" is the Wright brothers flyer to what we'll have in a few years. If you have voice chat with an agent on your phone that can just do everything you'd need an app for, what's the point of an app? And it's gonna happen, because if your app doesn't let people's agents handle their business and your competitors' does, people are gonna switch if they can. The computer interfaces of the future are going to be made for agents first.

		> My claim is that the "useful assistant for menial tasks" is the Wright brothers flyer to what we'll have in a few years. I agree with that. But what you originally wrote was, "The AI bundling problem is over. The user interface problem is over." It would probably make more sense to say "...will be over." People tend to be sensitive to those kinds of claims because there's a lot of hype around all this at the moment. So when people seem to imply that what we have right now is much more capable than it actually is, there tends to be pushback.
