Brayden Wilmoth shared that his OpenAI Dot agent emailed a fireplace seller on his behalf overnight to negotiate the price — he woke up to an invoice for $1,000 off the full price, ready to checkout. Reposter dkundel called it "dots for saving money" and asked @AnthropicAI when he can try a similar Duet feature.
A concrete example of autonomous agents moving from chat to real-world action like price negotiation.
