TL;DR
What did u/BraveBrush8890 use ChatGPT dot for?
On a drive, a ChatGPT user called their dot, had it log into Walmart, build a week of meal prep from what it knew of their tastes, check each item against their food allergy, and check out after confirming the total. They say it shopped for about 30 minutes, the groceries were handled before they got home, and the delivery arrived with everything done perfectly.
What they did
While driving hands-free, they called their dot and asked it to log into their Walmart account, reading out the login and the 2FA code. They told it to work from what it already knew about their likes and dislikes from past chats. It built a week of meal prep around their food allergy, checked every item against the allergy before adding it, stopped talking but kept shopping when they said they needed to focus on the road, and checked in at points. At the end it picked a delivery slot, suggested a tip, and confirmed the total twice before ordering.
How it went
They say it shopped for about 30 minutes, the groceries were handled before they got home, and the delivery arrived with everything done perfectly.
Worth knowing
- They handed over their store login and a 2FA code, which gives the agent purchase power. A commenter warned there are few direct safety and privacy settings and suggested making it confirm before spending. Others doubted the economics will stay this cheap. Check allergens yourself on anything that matters. In a similar thread, a commenter suggested paying with Apple Pay or a virtual card you can lock or limit after each order, rather than a saved card.

Try it yourself
Paste this into a chatbot, then add your own details underneath.
Plan a week of meal prep for me: [number] lunches and [number] dinners. I'm allergic to [allergen], so check every ingredient and flag anything that may contain it or be processed with it. Use what you know about my tastes, and avoid [dislikes]. Give me the recipes and one shopping list grouped by store section with quantities, and tell me which items you weren't sure about.
