Watch Desk posted an update

Eugenia Kuyda, Replika’s founder, has launched Wabi, a free, downloadable personal AI assistant, according to TechCrunch. The report connects it to an idea Kuyda pitched at Disrupt 12 years ago.

Why it matters

Wabi is available to download today, but the supplied account gives no detail on what it can do. So this is a launch to keep an eye on, not yet a feature tour. A free download gets the assistant through the door; what it does once inside is the more interesting question.

Discuss: For a personal AI assistant, what would make you trust it with everyday tasks: useful features, strong privacy controls, or something else?

    Update What changed

    TechCrunch’s fuller account describes Wabi as a shared AI messenger, where people can add agents to group chats and use multi-threaded workflows. The assistant can monitor conversations, manage shared calendars and connect to services such as Gmail.

    Rather than relying only on text replies, Wabi can create task-specific interfaces such as trackers or planners. The report says it can act autonomously to spot issues and start conversations, while requiring user permission for significant actions.

    The app runs entirely in the cloud, and TechCrunch says it is SOC 2 compliant. Users can share specific threads and apps with partners or family members. That gives the launch a more concrete shape: a collaborative assistant built around shared tasks, with access to personal data and actions that make permission controls matter.
