Negotiate 25% off my Verizon plan in the loyalty chat
DaVe McComb's screenshot shows his AI 'Archer' reporting a loyalty-chat win: Verizon offered 25% off plan charges — about $33.75/month for 12 months, no plan change or contract — which, with a hotspot already cut, drops his bill from $194.74 to about $161/month, roughly $405 a year. Archer asked whether to accept; he replied 'Yes, take the discount', and Archer confirmed it had told Verizon to apply it and would verify.
$405a year
The AI fixed my footer, then wrecked the spacing and sent a dead link
His work document had text overlapping in the footer, and the AI fixed that part. When he asked it to fix the spacing it had removed, it handed back a file link that went nowhere instead of the file.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Cancel my subscriptions — but let me click unsubscribe myself
WSJ columnist Nicole Nguyen asked Dots to cancel a handful of subscriptions but specified that she wanted to press the unsubscribe button herself. Dots loaded the correct account pages, pinged her when each was ready, and finished the job after her click.

Agent 'Romy' planned a 5-day Costa Rica road trip from 51 saved reels — and held the flights
With five days' notice, her AI Romy reviewed 51 saved 'Costa rica' reels, built a 5-day itinerary (Bajos del Toro, La Fortuna, Monteverde), found and held Miami-San Jose flights without purchasing, and searched for a dry bag pending her approval; the reel ends with footage from the trip itself.
The AI changed a word game's rules for his wife in about 10 minutes
The AI modified a NYT-style web game in about 10 minutes to change the rules for his wife; she was delighted.
The AI built and runs my landing page review business. No paying customers yet.
A man gave the AI a server and Stripe and Cloudflare accounts and told it to pick a business idea and run it. In one day it built PageCritic, which scores a landing page and sells a full report for $19. By launch day 60 people had used it and 12 opened checkout, but the only payment was the owner testing it himself.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
