Transcript

I have personal-agent fatigue, so I ran the first How I AI personal-agent benchmark: Grok Bot, Dot, Muse, and Claude Duet across nine real tasks, from a Slack reply and a Sentry bug to a Figma thumbnail, inbox triage, a family newspaper, physics homework for a fourth grader, shoe shopping, and a ChatPRD launch video. I used computer use to operate them: Claude ran Dot, Codex ran the rest and scored the results live. Here’s the scoreboard—and which agent I’d actually trust for work vs. life.
