How one user trusts AI agents: refunds, price-triggered buys, and party planning

Blogger marilynika explains she trusts AI agents with low-risk tasks that would otherwise never get done. After testing Muse, she keeps coming back to four use cases: chasing refunds and canceling subscriptions, condition-triggered purchases (price drops, ticket releases), wrangling family logistics like playdates and scheduling, and end-to-end event planning (e.g. planning a kid's birthday party given a budget and location). Her core point: agents don't need to be reliable at everything — handling long-tail chores is enough to earn trust.
