Instinct 与 Grok Bot 的个人助理形态之争
作者喜欢 Instinct，但认为 iMessage 串行对话限制太大，Grok Bot 按目标分 agent 的并行形态更优，Instinct 需独立 App 重做体验才撑得起 300 亿美元估值。
i actually quite like instinct but i don’t believe it’ll be able to justify $30b unless they reimagine the user experience from the ground up in a stand alone app the “sequential” imessage ui (back and forth texting) is inherently very limiting and inefficient compared to say, the parallel nature of grok bot. apple’s inflexibility with imessage will also make it impossible to innovate the personal agents user experience to a necessary degree i will say imessage is very good for luring in non-ai-native users, aka most people in the world, and is very convenient and conducive to habit building also, the personal agent space is filled with the most rich, talented, and passionate competing teams in the world. imo grok bot has the optimal form factor (agents separated by goal) at the end of the day though, the consumer wins
