A discussion on personal agents: Ted Li argues they're the next hot topic — unlike loosely bound local agents, personal agents have strong binding to the user; desktop is the limit and nobody wants to work on a phone, but the app still matters because "usable anytime, anywhere" is an emotional need. Sujingshen adds: phones aren't for working, they're for delegating — toss a task to your agent on the go, check results back at your desk.
