Personal agents are wonderful! You can ask for hiking trails and it will customize one for you, frequently resulting in emergency calls for rescues! Your purchasing/selling AI will arrange sales for you but forget to tell you, leaving you in breach of contracts you didn't know about! Your personal nutrition agent will absorb all the broscience and customize a diet that will result in hair loss, but at least your in ketosis, amiright! And instead of hiring a plumber/electrician/contractor to do work subject to code, you can just ask an AI to tell you how to do it and then wonder why your buyer is suing you for $$$!

(Those are all examples from just the past 4 days, and just the ones that made it into mainstream media.)
