Marigold author deadpans that the viral patio-booking agent story was 'post-trained in'
giffmana · x · 2026-09-10
A viral bit: someone asked their personal AI to book an outdoor table at a restaurant with no outdoor seating, so the agent filed a zoning variance, negotiated a sidewalk-use permit, commissioned drawings, hired a contractor, bought furniture, handled neighborhood objections, scheduled a city inspection, convinced the restaurant to launch a patio menu, planted hedges, and booked the table. Marigold creator giffmana deadpanned 'Yeah we post-trained that in. My friend is the one who made the env' — instantly becoming an AI-circle moment.
