adityasriram··on Curious. anyone here allow agents to make purchase decisions of >$100?
I kinda turned the tool off for now anyway cause I stopped paying the subscription for it haha

I imagine this to be better with an apple wallet type interface where I don't even have to ask and the wallet just auto selects whatever's best - but this seems to be super hard to build so I kinda just gave up

ikr? I keep hearing about people claim that they're handing over the keys to agents to make purchases for their businesses and it freaks me out to just think about it.

I was checking out polsia.com which says it autonomously builds a company for you - but it made a lot of random assumptions and built something completely different from what I wanted, and then asked me for my credit card details to start running marketing promos and I immediately stopped my fun little experiment

ooh, does that help? or does it hallucinate a lot?

I made this for myself a while ago: https://rewardsgenie.calstudio.com/ it's a tool that tells me what's the most rewarding credit card to use for any purchase, but even with good context, it would sometimes make stuff up so I kinda stopped caring

yeah, like the robinhood credit card has an option where you can set it to make just one purchase and then become inactive. that's an option. what kinda purchases would you be thinking of making - professional like paying for ads online, or personal like buying a pair of shoes or something?
