Tried it. After 3 requests, all of which would have taken less than the prescribed 15 minutes, was told it wasn't the right service for me. Great idea, poor execution on MVP unfortunately.
1. Reorder stuff for me on instacart (would have taken 2 minutes), 2. Lookup a URL for me, 3. Lookup 10 quotes. Last one could be called "iffy," but this was after texting them asking for parameters to which they responded "as long as it's legal, we're in beta now so anything goes." (paraphrase) Again, not here to trash these guys / gals, but...
Pretty bold - were those listed amongst that Jarvis' abilities? My assistant (Cyman Digital Butler) has a list of example commands you can try, gives an idea of the abilities Cyman has. So you could say "open the ... website" to get the url for example. Although we've got a great community to help, we're in the middle of creating a wiki. Perhaps the Jarvis you're using needs a wiki too.
"Pretty much anything a personal assistant can do." "Jarvis is a tech enabled person." I would assume from this that all those tasks were possible for a human personal assisstant.
Very true. Far be it for me to defend the competition, they probably are still teaching it certain phrasings. My Cyman assistant is pretty good at understanding a variety of phrases, but I'm still teaching him.

What was the nature of your requests?
