Constraints

Set a budget cap ($500) and deadline (24 hours) in dots, authorize access to emails, calendar, meeting transcripts, Google Sheets, and other data sources, then let the AI autonomously filter suitable friends, coordinate timing, book tickets and restaurants, map commutes, and send invites. The user retains only two roles: data permission approval and physical attendance.

What they did

Author alliekmiller gave her AI agent Dot a $500 budget and 24-hour deadline to fully plan an afternoon activity for her and a friend. She asked it to pick the friend, ping the friend, coordinate time, pick plans, book any tickets, grab any reservations, map out commutes, send event invites, and explicitly limited her own two roles to: (1) data permissions and (2) showing up. She literally got into a cab and let Dot take over her day.

How it went

Dot went through her recent emails, calendar events, meeting transcripts, Google Sheets, and party invites — basically anything it could review — to find people to reach out to. It prioritized not just recent conversations but friends specifically likely to be down for a strange experiment. Friends 1-4 were sick or out of town. After she reminded it that less than 24 hours remained, it pinged two friends; one replied saying she was in. Her Dots then coordinated the whole thing over email. She had been concerned it would reach out to 50 people or near strangers with whom she'd shared only one recent email, but the actual scope remained reasonable.

Worth knowing

Source contains only two tweets; 'Results in thread' implies follow-up outcomes not present in the snapshot, so actual event results are unknown. Specific booking platforms, restaurant reservation services, or mapping/commute tools used were not disclosed. Actual spending breakdown of the $500 budget was not provided. This use case heavily depends on dots' data integration and email-sending capabilities; individual users' connected data sources may affect outcomes. The AI's friend-selection logic ('strange experiment' preference judgment) operates as a black box; the author expressed concern about over-outreach.

Steps

  1. Define task scope and budget

    Create a new task in dots, specifying you need an afternoon activity planned (with one friend), set total budget to $500 and completion deadline to 24 hours. Clarify your two roles are limited to: (1) data permission approval, and (2) showing up on the day.

  2. Authorize data access

    Grant dots permission to read recent emails, calendar events, meeting transcripts, Google Sheets, party invites, and other relevant data so it can filter potential friends based on actual social history rather than random selection.

  3. Confirm friend selection and coordinate timing

    The AI will analyze your data and prioritize friends likely to be open to an unconventional experiment. If initial candidates are unavailable (sick or out of town), you can remind the AI of time constraints to expand outreach. Once a friend confirms, the AI coordinates timing via email.

  4. Execute bookings and send invites

    The AI autonomously books tickets, makes restaurant reservations, maps commute routes, and sends calendar invites to participants. You can approve permissions at key points without manually handling specific booking workflows.
