- K Valley argues personal AI agents will splinter the same way chatbots did in 2023: everyone expected one model to win, but we now have 220 models across text, image and video, and users pick a daily driver by feel — taste beats raw horsepower.
- Quoting brycent: there's no single optimal personal assistant; he runs Instinct, Muse, GrokBot and Dots in parallel for different use cases.
- The prediction: your agent knows your habits and voice, so you'll choose the one you can stand having around all day — the way the author settled on Grok Bot and Muse.
