Power user view: Consumer agents need multiplayer mode and voice calling capabilities
rebeccakaden · x · 2026-08-31
A heavy AI user shares that consumer agents like Instinct or Townie have shifted from theoretically cool to 'addictively essential' in daily life and work. The user identifies two critical missing features: 1) Multiplayer functionality to coordinate directly with agents owned by friends and family; 2) Voice calling integration, noting that a significant portion of the world still operates via phone calls, which agents currently cannot handle.
