Why it matters
Comparing products, prices and delivery options is slow work for a human and fast work for an agent. Cases like this show agents doing the legwork before anything gets bought. It is one of 65 sightings filed under Shopping on Agent Sightings (number 35 by interest), and one of 29 involving ChatGPT.

Shopping task: reconcile orders, draft invoices, and order laptops nightly. Collect order/policy details, prepare exact steps, and pause before submit or payment.
