- What they did
- The reviewer gave Comet two separate prompts. For the booking, it went off on its own to check the highest-rated restaurants and their availability. It then asked whether to proceed before completing the reservation. For the email, Comet asked for the time, recipient and reason, then opened Gmail, asked the reviewer to enter their email details, and filled in the draft.
- How it went
- The reservation went through after Comet asked for confirmation, and the Gmail draft was filled in so the reviewer only had to hit send. A plain draft request, without Gmail access, produced a generic template.
- Worth knowing
- Comet needed answers to its follow-up questions and a Gmail sign-in, so the email draft wasn't fully hands-off.
