A bearded creator (Medo, 6.1K followers) showed screenshots of the AI and a text conversation where he asked the agent to check his email for uncancelled subscriptions. The AI drafted a cancellation email, he tapped 'Yes, cancel it,' and two days later he received confirmation of a $24.99 refund.

Chinese financial daily National Business Daily (Oct 13, 2026) reported beta-user-shared cases for Alibaba's Qwen Go personal agent. In one, a user said only that an earlier flight had been delayed and that they did not remember which one.
