What was done
Rucha asked ChatGPT and Gemini to book a house cleaner in Queens. She got 7 suggestions, but none could be booked in the chat, and every answer pushed her on to a phone number or another site. She cites figures saying 45 percent now use AI to find local businesses, and that only 52 percent of calls to such firms reach a person. For small businesses, the agent finds them but goes no further. Check the original.

Find [service, for example a house cleaner] in [area] who can come on [date]. Make a list with price, open slots and whether it can be booked online without calling. Do not book, pay or call anyone. Show me the list before you contact any of them. You are done when I can see which firms can actually be booked directly, and which only have a phone number.
