Instinct brings its AI agent to group chats, even for friends without an account

Instinct has introduced a new feature allowing users to integrate its AI agent directly into group chats. This update is designed to facilitate collaborative tasks such as planning trips, organizing carpools, and coordinating events among friends. A notable aspect of this release is that the AI agent can participate in these group settings even if some participants do not have an Instinct account. The company emphasizes that user privacy remains a priority, noting that personal accounts stay separate. Furthermore, the system requires explicit permission before any personal agent is allowed to share information or perform actions on behalf of a user within the group. This move aims to make AI-assisted coordination more accessible and social, bridging the gap between individual productivity tools and collaborative group environments while maintaining strict data boundaries.
