Overview
Instinct is a personal assistant that understands what you're working on and what's important to you. It connects to your applications and devices - email, messaging, screen, audio, location, and more. The interface is simple: there are no new interfaces. It's trained to use a phone and a computer. You can text or call it. It uses its devices in the same way that humans do. Instinct's core model is trained to understand and handle the deeply personal nuances of everyday life - following up on threads you've dropped, proactively calling or texting you, arranging a ride to the airport, booking a handyman for your apartment, and much more.
