\n Groceries that appear without being requested aren’t magic at Jesse Genet’s house\u2014they’re the work of “Claire,” one of several AI agents she’s turned into her virtual household staff. Writing for New York Magazine<\/a>, Lane Brown details how the ex-startup CEO and mother of seven has handed off much of her family’s tasks to autonomous software that reads her calendar, orders food, buys items on Amazon, manages her children’s homeschool, and even builds custom apps. These agents run on a rack of Mac minis and a Mac Studio at her rural California ranch, increasingly using local AI models. “Local models mean nobody can cut her off,” Brown writes. “They mean that whatever her family tells AI never leaves the house … and they mean, [Genet] says, ‘if the apocalypse happens, I’ll still have superintelligence at my fingertips.'” \n <\/p>\n


\n Brown notes that it hasn’t been all smooth sailing, with occasional glitches in Genet’s workflow. Once, for instance, one of her agents got mixed signals on whether or not to send an email on her behalf, erroneously chose to send the email after she’d asked it never to impersonate her (one of her rules), and subsequently had its email access revoked. “Mostly, though, the help is excellent,” Brown writes. Brown uses Genet’s early-adopter life to also explore a bigger question: If AI “employees” become cheap and ubiquitous, who gets that power, and will access to AI deepen inequality? “Right now, only a small percentage of people on earth are using AI,” Genet says. “What happens when millions or billions of people start using this?” Still, she says, “that’s the most doomer take you can squeeze out of me,” insisting she’s optimistic on where this can all lead.
