Hand your personal and family life to an always-on ChatGPT agent

Eric Porres, a Logitech executive and father of four, spent two weeks with an OpenAI Dot (a persistent ChatGPT agent) that he named Jarvis. By voice and text, he handed over entire trips, old to-dos and follow-ups, with the rule that nothing is bought, booked or sent on his behalf without a yes.

How it works

  1. Give the agent your family's context once (files with insurance, doctors, travel preferences).

  2. Hand over an entire trip: dates, people, budget and what works for each person.

  3. Pass along the to-do drawer (a ticket to dispute, a refund, a trade-in credit) and let the agent chase them.

  4. Say your approval line out loud: payments, bookings and messages to third parties only with your OK.

  5. Ask every Monday for a summary of everything it's carrying and what needs rechecking.

Prompt

Replace anything in [brackets] with your own details.

prompt.txt
You are my personal agent for family life. Handle this trip from start to finish: dates, who's going, budget and what works for each person. Compare places to stay and explain the pros and cons of each. Then follow these to-dos through to the end: the parking ticket dispute, the refund request and the phone trade-in credit. Don't pay, book or send anything on my behalf without asking me first. Every Monday, send me a summary of what's in progress and what you need to recheck.

Reported result

In two weeks, the agent planned a Florida trip itinerary, compared four places to stay for his daughter at a festival in Europe, opened a parking ticket dispute, submitted the refund request and started tracking a trade-in credit. He says he used the apps far less.
