- a: "An AI chat app (such as ChatGPT or Claude) is a reactive window: it generates text when prompted, cannot take actions outside its web sandbox, and isolates history within disposable threads. A personal AI assistant (such as Vellum) lives on your computer, maintains continuous memory across devices, and proactively takes real-world actions on your behalf—such as managing calendars, triaging email, monitoring web feeds, and executing scheduled tasks. Choose a chat app for ad-hoc brainstorming and a personal assistant for ongoing operational work."
