Buy on Amazon inside my own logged-in account
The AI’s Comet browser shopped Amazon inside users' own signed-in Prime accounts — loading pages, comparing products, filling carts and completing purchases at the user's direction — until Amazon sued, arguing the access was the user's permission but not Amazon's authorization. A district court enjoined Comet in March 2026; on August 4, 2026 the Ninth Circuit vacated the injunction, holding the agent is a tool and the user is the one buying, while leaving terms-of-service claims live.

A materials scientist with a PhD and almost no coding background built and shipped a live stock portfolio tracker over about three months and 277 commits, pasting code blocks the AI gave him into a terminal and pasting the results back. The tracker is not about returns: it makes him write down why he bought a stock and what would prove him wrong, then pressure tests his reasoning and scores how well his past calls held up.

My agent got me $35 back on a Mac mini by picking the right card
He was about to pay about $700 for a Mac mini at Micro Center on his usual card, which gives 1.5% back. The AI reminded him that his US Bank card was paying 5% back at electronics stores that quarter, so he got $35 back instead of $10.50. The AI also logs into his card portal and turns on all the store offers for him, and pings him before good offers expire.
