Proactive agents are what labs are fighting over now. Two days after OpenAI shipped Dots, Grok Bot started offering to take work off your plate. Two labs, two days, the same idea. An agent that finds your work and does it before you ask. And xAI made the suggestions free. Proactive agents are now a pricing race too.
