When you've made the reservation, email these 20 ppl a printable invitation to attend. Also my wife wants to go to England in mid-July. Find 5 plausible flights for the family and make several distinct itineraries. Finally, pls edit this work memo.'

Transcript

Screenshot of a Bluesky quote chain.

The first post, by @DKThomp on Twitter, says: "Fascinating @benthompson vision of the future of the Internet—i.e., 'The Agentic Web' Scenario: Before I go to sleep, I tell ChatGPT 'Plan my 5-year-old's birthday next Saturday, budget $500. When you've made the reservation, email these 20 ppl a printable invitation to attend. Also my wife wants to go to England in mid-July. Find 5 plausible flights for the family and make several distinct itineraries. Finally, pls edit this work memo.'

When I go to sleep, the Al agent negotiates slots with two bowling alleys, buys a cake, emails printable invites, plans the trip, copy-edits, etc."

It is quoted by Drew Harwell on Bluesky: "Wouldn't do this in a million years".

This quote is then quoted by @cinemashoebox.bsky.social: "Waking up to 20 angry parents of my son's friends wondering why they've been sent an invitation to a BRITOTHDYA PRRRYT featuring a picture of Elsa with three eyes and tits bigger than her head. meanhile my wife is boarding a plane for her 176 hour flight to England via four layovers in Antarctica"

Your agent would communicate with the venue's agent, after some negotiation they would agree on $400 dollars for a 7.5 minute party for 5000 children

Both AI agents assume that all children are perfectly spherical and the venue exists exclusively with no atmosphere in a vacuum.

That's a great idea! Treating the children like perfectly spherical objects will let us calculate the flow of children through the bowling alley more like particles through a garden hose. Since we can accommodate many more children this way, let's expand the invitations to the entire school contacts list, with the new subject line, "Your child-sized balls are cordially invited!" The invitations are sent and your wife's travel plans have been amended to a one-day round trip starting and ending at the same airport to save on airfare costs. Is there anything else you need help with?

I almost thought this was a real ChatGPT response lol

[–] Silic0n_Alph4@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Luckily, your wife’s round trip will be with the best airline in existence.

They recently had the AI village experiment AI plan and carry out an event. They did finally have the event but there were some hiccups like they had to keep reminding the AIs that they were not coporeal and could not do things like drive to pick up the cake or make and bring signs to the event.
