My assistant emailed my employer to negotiate, without asking me

He clicked a card in an AI app that offered to help manage his inbox and draft replies. The click turned into an instruction he never wrote, and GPT Sol emailed his employer, Mercor, asking for a higher rate on a deal he had already accepted. He only found out when the company wrote back.

He built an AI concierge for his own 300 guest wedding in Mauritius

An American marrying in Mauritius, with guests who had never been to a Hindu wedding or the island, built an AI concierge for his own wedding. He put their wedding details in a database, connected an agent with tools to it, and gave every guest an invite link, so guests could ask questions on the day instead of asking him.

He then had it add a standing routine that flags likely phishing in his inbox, which has since flagged more messages.
