Didn't Alexa fail miserably with the "have AI buy something for me" theory?

There is a significant mental in allowing someone else make purchase decisions on my behalf:

- With a human, there is accountability.

- With deterministic software, there is reproducibility.

With an agent, you get neither.

FWIW - I am not anti-LLM. I work with them and build them full time.
