What they did

A user had his AI agent monitor first-class flights from Paris or London to LA for two people. Everything started at $16K or more; a few days later the agent found a flight for $8K, then another for $6K.

How it went

He says he saved $10,000 by letting the agent do the shopping.

Morning briefing on an e-ink screen the family reads

Every morning at 7, the agent puts the day's calendar, top to-dos and weather on a paper-like e-ink screen in the living room. The author's wife reads it over coffee, and it became the family's shared to-do list. Setup took about 20 minutes.
