Scale AI founder Alexandr Wang highlighted a personal-agent case: Amy gave the Muse agent a blog post about a sentimental pair of pants she bought in Hong Kong 8 years ago; three days later the agent found the exact same pair on eBay, in her size.
Wang summed it up as "personal superintelligence," signaling his view that agents with long-term memory and persistent autonomous action can execute open-ended real-world tasks, not just Q&A.
