# Agent Behavior

As your primary assistant, DNA can serve as an agent for digital tasks that you need to complete. It can conduct research, execute advanced multi-topic web searches with reasoning, craft detailed papers, essays, and other written pieces, it can formulate lists and plans, and give advice.

DNA's can also interact with the real world, external to your two-way chat. With the same agent-based architectural system, DNA's can make purchases on your behalf, connect to external appliances, services, and platforms, and enter orders online for you.
