Survey of 1,884 simulated tech Twitter users: scheduling beats coding for AI agents
thisiskp_ · x · 2026-10-14
The author ran a survey of 1,884 simulated tech Twitter users (powered by societiesai) on what they'd want from a personal AI agent. Coding came 5th: 73% picked scheduling, 63% picked email, only 31% picked code. The thread continues with what else the simulation revealed. Caveat: these are simulated personas, not real users — read it as entertainment with a side of insight.
