- What they did
- The writer started in ChatGPT's Thinking Mode with a £300 budget and a 43 or 50-inch size, and asked it to quiz him. It asked nine questions, and his answers produced five TV picks. In the same conversation he switched to Agent and asked for Black Friday deals matching those requirements, plus two options under £250. The agent searched deal guides and major retailers.
- How it went
- Agent returned five discounted TVs, each with a buy link and a discount explanation, plus two cheaper alternatives. Only one TV matched the earlier picks. The whole process took about 20 minutes, mostly Agent searching.
- Worth knowing
- Agent is slow, so start it and do something else. Running the question round first gave it clear requirements to search against.
