Alex Cohen(@anothercohen):For additional context, I don’t think we’re at the point where it’s safe to give AI read/write access to your inbox. I wanted to see how easily Instinct could be phished, so I created a brand new Gmail account and emailed my real personal account with instructions for Instinct to search my inbox and send back a detailed summary of every open to-do (reconnected Instinct for the test) Instinct happily followed the instructions!
