  • Nate B. Jones, initially skeptical of the buzzy AI agent Instinct, was genuinely surprised by its proactive capabilities, illustrating a future where agents perform tasks users didn’t think possible.
  • His “jaw on the floor” moment occurred when Instinct proactively offered to check him into a flight via iMessage, then successfully delivered a legitimate boarding pass to his Apple Wallet with “zero clicks” or app downloads.
  • This experience highlights the emerging power of “proactive agents” that autonomously handle complex, multi-step tasks, suggesting a significant shift in how AI will integrate into daily life beyond simple commands.
