Sierra announces Personal Agent Protocol, an open standard for personal AI agents

Personal agent protocols set rules for how an AI assistant signs into shopping and other sites and what it may do there. The Personal Agent Protocol from Sierra and Meta uses OAuth sessions: an agent can browse as a guest, then a signed-in customer chooses between read-only access and write access, and each company decides whether agents use its website, its APIs or its own bot.
