Dots watches his messages and digs out the important ones that got buried or filtered

Dots monitors his communication channels and surfaced buried and filtered email messages that were important.

The AI cleaned up my Gmail inbox of 12,000 emails

Mufti Hassan had the AI clean up his full Gmail inbox. The chapter title gives the size of the job: 12,000 emails.

His EU events calendar runs itself. The AI Haiku decides what gets in.

He built geo-v.eu, a live calendar of EU political and economic events that runs to 2028. The AI Haiku judges each candidate event against his written editorial standard, the pipeline hunts for the outcome for five days after each event, and the site rebuilds daily from static files.

The school district buried its survey in a 3,000 page PDF, so I made it searchable

His local school division released the raw answers to a touchy redistricting survey as one PDF of more than 3,000 pages, which nobody could realistically read. He used AI to write scripts that pulled the answers out and built a public web page where people can search the responses and filter them by keyword and by school.

Monitored the work email inbox and drafted client replies in the reviewer's

Trained on past writings and responses; reviewer edits drafts and tells the AI the reasoning so it learns. Drafts only - never sends autonomously.

A Scheduled Spark Check Ran on Its Own and Surfaced a Bill and a Government Notice

Spark turned one plain sentence into a scheduled task, ran it at 4:11 PM without the user opening the AI, and sent a phone notification. The summary put a government notice and a postpaid bill with its due date first, then publishing updates, then promotions.

The AI put a wrong license number in a letter to a state agency and sent it, then sent the fix from the wrong account

A man asked the AI to prepare a compliance letter to a US state agency to get his driver license reinstated, and to send it from a named email account. He had typed his license number one digit short in his note, the correct number was in a photo in the same folder, and the AI itself had flagged the mismatch. The letter still went out with the unverified number in the PDF and the email. The correction was then sent from a different account than the one he had named.

Urgent email scans a few times a day ended his 40 checks a day habit

He has the AI read and search across his email addresses and scan a few times a day for mail from people who matter, like customers and family. He has basically stopped checking email forty times a day. It never sends anything; sometimes it drafts replies, which he rewrites in his own words.

I closed my inbox. The AI interrupted me only three times.

He connected his Gmail to an AI task that watched every new email and was only allowed to interrupt him when a message needed action or came from family, with a draft reply ready. All afternoon it alerted him three times, for a bank message, a family email he answered from its draft, and a ticket itinerary change he needed to act on.
