Your phone buzzes at 6 a.m. It’s ChatGPT: “I see you’re traveling to New York this week. Based on your preferences, I’ve found three restaurants near your hotel. Would you like me to make a reservation?”

You didn’t ask for this. The AI simply knew your plans from scanning your calendar and email and decided to help. Later, you mention to the chatbot needing flowers for your wife’s birthday. Within seconds, beautiful arrangements appear in the chat. You tap one: “Buy now.” Done. The flowers are ordered.

I think we need an AI comm.

    How long until you don’t even have to give permission, ChatGPT will just buy stuff?

    lol, this reminds me of the Amazon Dash buttons, what an idea that was. Your place would be full of buttons with different products on them, and if you need more product, just push buton.

      I’m glad you asked! I have one particular deal for you, which many would die for: a fully-functional spire, for the low low price of denouncing white genocide in South Africa!!![1] Indeed, most of the world can be said to have no spine, with how they let the black mob kill white people and loot their farms without consequence. Any one of the following would kill to gain back a spine: the South African government, the woke media, the European Union, the United States of America, China… All of them are complicit. But, by raising awareness about their crimes against the white people, you can show that you indeed have a spine of steel.


      1. Plus shipping. ↩︎

    On Sept. 29, 2025, OpenAI and payment processor Stripe launched the Agentic Commerce Protocol. This technology lets you buy things instantly from Etsy within ChatGPT conversations.

    Soon comes “autopilot AI,” where AI makes purchases for you with minimal input from you. “Order flowers for my anniversary next week.” ChatGPT checks your calendar, remembers preferences, processes payment and confirms delivery.

    This is kind of genius. They’re going to automate consumption. Spend people’s money without their input. Will it work? Well, people are using hard drive wiping “agentic AI” and forgetting about handfuls of subscriptions, so maybe!
