AI, Blockchain, and Legacy Web2 Systems Working in Harmony?

TL;DR

• Jeeves is an AI/blockchain powered website that plays the role of “The Organizer.”

• AI, blockchain, and legacy Web2 systems still, for the most part, live in their own little bubbles; but this is a good example of them working in harmony.

• Maybe soon we’ll be partnering with our AI to catalog how many times we can work ‘rambunctious’ into a conversation before someone says something.

Full Story

“The Organizer.”

If you’ve ever traveled in a group, there will have been someone that held that title.

If you’ve only ever traveled solo, the relationship basically works like this:

The Organizer gets annoyed by the group’s tendency to get caught in sluggish indecision, while the rest of the group resents The Organizer’s constant need to, well, organize.

It’s weird.

But we have a feeling this dynamic may soon fade into obscurity, thanks to a platform we just learned about called Jeeves – an AI/blockchain powered website that plays the role of “The Organizer.”

The basic gist is this:

You tell Jeeves where/when you’re going, what interests/budget you have, and it spits out an in-depth itinerary, right down to each day’s morning, lunch, afternoon, dinner, and evening activities.

Then, like a faithful butler, Jeeves suggests all of the flights, hotels, and activity bookings you’ll need to make in order to bring your itinerary into reality.

(He even sets you up a blockchain based loyalty wallet, so you can collect rewards as you go).

Which is cool and all…

But here’s what’s really exciting us about this:

AI, blockchain, and legacy Web2 systems still, for the most part, live in their own little bubbles.

Learning about products/platforms that seamlessly integrate each technology without the end user feeling any friction gives us visions of a future where an Iron Man x Jarvis-style human/machine relationship might exist.

Except instead of working together to help save NYC from an alien invasion, we’ll be partnering with our AI to catalog how many times we can work ‘rambunctious’ into a conversation before someone says something.

(Our current record is 5 times, in 5 minutes).
