Rebook a delayed flight connection mid-flight
According to the write-up, denis gave Dot from OpenAI access to its own computer. While he was still on the delayed Alaska flight, the agent simultaneously messaged Alaska, Delta, and KLM, located a new routing, and requested the free rebooking. The agent secured the rebooking and avoided an while people sleep stay in Seattle.

Why it matters
Trips involve lots of searching, forms and waiting on hold. This is an example of an agent handling that busywork so the traveller only has to approve the result. It is one of 63 sightings filed under Travel & Booking on Agent Sightings (number 6 by interest), and one of 11 involving Dots.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Dots or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Plan: rebook a delayed flight connection mid-flight. Compare 2–3 options (cost, timing, tradeoffs), recommend one, and do not book or pay yet.
Tip: Have the agent list options with prices and cancellation rules, and only book once you have said yes to one.
