Using Dots through iMessage feels less like software
The author describes using Dots inside iMessage as something entering your world rather than you entering a product, especially natural when the agent uses emojis and reactions well.
one of the most interesting things about using a personal agent like dots through imessage is that it truly stops feeling like software. as if something is entering your world as opposed to you entering its which is almost every other product. there is this visceral & maybe subtle feeling behind it that is quite powerful. a lot of ppl don’t like it but damn it’s so easy to use, & feels so damn natural esp when ai uses emojis + reactions well etc. kinda reminds me of how even babies intuitively are able to figure out how to unlock an ipad.
