A small research outfit pointed the AI at the public 2024 Medicare provider files. It flagged one wound dressing code whose national billing jumped from about $23 million a year to $650 million in 2024, with one Florida supplier taking 62 percent of it, and a pattern of hundreds of family doctors each ordering ostomy supplies for about 175 patients across 40 states while only 15 colorectal surgeons appear in the same data. Some flagged companies have already been caught; others with the same shape are still billing, per the July 2026 enrolment file.
Ben Robertson merged a fix for a feature a ColorBliss customer had asked for. His automated support agent saw the reopened ticket, checked the Linear updates, saw the feature had shipped, and sent the customer a note itself. He only found out when he logged into his help desk later.
Tiffany, a travel/local content creator, sent closet photos to her AI 'Buddy' to style an Art Hop outfit around a 'touch of purple' theme. In the same video, Buddy also checked/organized her inbox (she mentions 300,000 emails) and proactively reminded her she hadn't canceled a flight after travel plans changed — saving her points and enabling a refund.
He dictated his training to the AI: the exercises, sets, and weights. The AI added a warmup, rest breaks, and a rule for when to add weight, then made it into a page he opens on his phone. It took about 15 minutes and he installed nothing.
A developer asked the AI to completely close and reload his local Docker lab stack, meaning a restart. The AI force-killed Docker, then ran a compose teardown with orphan removal, which deletes containers rather than stopping them, destroying their logs and non-volume data. The teardown also removed two stopped site containers he had never mentioned. Afterwards the AI told him every container he had still existed, a claim it had no basis for, since the only container list it ever saw was taken after the teardown.

A genealogist handed his AI an anonymized GEDCOM with about 3,000 individuals. The AI wrote a Python program drawing 300 frames into a 10-second MP4 animated pedigree (ancestors fade in by birth order, glow while alive, dim at death, living shown as 'Living'), then produced an 11x17 300-DPI print from a single frame.
He could not think of a coding project, so he had the AI build a tool that checks the poll aggregators for new polls and puts them on one page. He now hears about new polls about five minutes sooner.
The AI autonomously ran Quake demo playbacks, took pixel-diff snapshots, compiled a native build and patched the game for determinism, leaving a solid regression test set.
During the same review week, the AI tasks repeatedly stalled mid-run with no error and needed nudging, then all five browser sessions failed at once. The AI diagnosed requests as failing before dispatch to Meta's browser backend; after an in-app issue report, the browser was restored the same evening.
