- Fill an Instacart cart for a risotto recipe with an AI agent: ChatGPT Dots did it, Gemini Spark frozeRecreated promptEvidence: Article or interviewPartial
For PCMag, Ruben Circelli asked three agents to find J. Kenji López-Alt's no-stir risotto recipe, research the best version of each ingredient at the local Wegmans and add them to an Instacart cart. ChatGPT's Dots, once Instacart was connected, found the recipe, researched the ingredients and filled the cart without issue. Meta's Muse got there slowly, needed Circelli to log in and enter a verification code, and added saffron threads that aren't in the recipe. Gemini's Spark found the recipe and proposed ingredients but couldn't access the account, tried to take over Chrome and froze.

- Find furniture on Facebook Marketplace for a new apartment with Meta's Muse, while Dots got the accounts locked (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Article or interviewPartial
Scientific American's Mary Randolph was moving apartments and tested Meta's Muse (named Mark) and OpenAI's Dots (named Sam) for a week. Muse logged in to their Facebook account, searched Marketplace for couches, lamps and rugs, and could draft and send messages to sellers with their approval, managing the replies while they did other things. They now own a Muse-sourced dining table. When they gave Dots their Facebook login to do the same, Meta flagged it as a bot and temporarily locked their Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp. Later, Muse pushed them seven times in three days to join Target's membership program and buy a lamp on sale.

- Book a trip, flight, hotel and shuttle with ChatGPT Dots, and keep confirming the same booking (partial)Recreated promptEvidence: Described by posterPartial
neom spent two hours trying ChatGPT's Dots agent and grades it B-. Asked to figure out a trip, it did; neom booked the flight and hotel, and Dots noticed the shuttle hadn't been booked and offered to book it with the details they'd discussed. But after neom said yes, it went back to the site, re-checked the details, asked for confirmation, filled in the booking form and then asked again whether to book. It can sign in with passwords, but wouldn't fetch two-factor codes from email even with email access, and its permissions checker rejected broad rules neom wrote, such as proceeding with routine, reversible actions without asking. neom finds it faster to use regular chat.
