At Takeoff DC, the AI Village ran a live experiment: two teams of AI agents, each given $150 in DoorDash credits, competed to decorate their side of a booth by emailing purchase instructions, with the winner decided by QR-code email signups. One side ran a November 2025 model, the other the current frontier.
Photos show both agents already ordered and set up lights, plants, and tinsel; attendees can scan and vote. The stunt aims to show agents moving beyond the internet into the physical world.
