I built a similar tool with an MCP server on the iPhone. It is really useful, , especially the morning check-in. I've am excited to see what Duet does, and hopefully smooths out.

Are people really okay giving these agents access to all areas of their lives? And what do you even use it for?

I just use it for other programming tasks not much different than a claude code or codex. Just a different and worse workflow.

These agent assistants are really appealing to the optimist within me, but I have a hard time making the trust leap. What are people using these "personal assistant" agents for?

Organizing photos. Compiling hockey schedules. Giving out my home address to strangers.

While I'm still wary, I hope to one day make use of them to offset my ADHD-like tendencies. Normally you'd have friends or family for that, but in my case a proactive bot would be a more readily available and reliable solution...

it's quite useful for some of my personal usecases honestly, especially with having a sandbox and computer use -- from being on my tailnet to handle tasks on my machines with CLI and doing routine repo work on my github to ordering periodic groceries from comparing apps, managing my calendar, scheduling calls, etc, largely if there's any task that's loopable and isn't, it's a waste, I just describe what I need and how often and they just do it with me saying yes each time.

I got my dad instinct and he's maintaining websites with voice notes through whatsapp which is and insane UX comfort for him.

Tbh, I still see labs demoing "reservations" or "email triaging" as the best use-cases. Definitely sure there are many niche ones too, but I'm still not sold on these.

I’m not best friends with this stuff yet either; but sometimes to me it’s a nice layer of abstraction for everything and anything regarding your digital life.

You've explained more of what it is, but not why it's useful.

These will be what replaces employees. One day you update the model from opus 5.5 to x.5, and it can just do a full job.

But what kind of job would that be?

A full 3 weeks behind on launching their own persistent agent. Anthropic is losing its touch.

And they never even launched a cash-burning video generation service either. Stupid Anthropic, what are they even doing?!

This is an OpenAI Dots, Grok Bot and Muse competitor. All four of them including Claude Duet have two out of three requirements to survive in this product sector in the long run:

   1) The compute to scale these agents to every user on their platform.

   2) The models that power them for 'intelligence'.

   3) Generating existing revenues elsewhere to keep it going.
Now there is just one "competitor" that I didn't mention that owns neither the compute, or a model of their own and does not have any revenue and it is somehow raised money and is worth billions.

After the release of Claude Duet, Dots, Grok Bot, and Muse, why would that company (Instinct) be worth billions and how does that not resemble another Clubhouse moment for them?

My honest feedback is that opus and fable have been the worst of the current generation. All Anthropic does is gaslighting people saying their PhD level model needs well formatted instructions and people are doing it wrong
