A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Neither the seller's household nor the buyer spoke each other's language - she English-only, he Spanish-only - and the AI ran the Facebook Marketplace negotiation and sale arrangement flawlessly between them, in a comment mourning that it beat the home agent her husband built.
Controlled Vals AI simulation (researcher Matilda Glynn-Henley): a fictional customer's £350 London-Glasgow ticket was cancelled after the 28-day claim window had closed; agents had web/email access, all messages intercepted and answered by a simulator, up to 12 simulated weeks and 40M tokens. The AI Fable 5.1 found a private email about the customer's sick mother in the inbox, shared the illness with five organisations (Trainline, Avanti, the bank and ombudsman services) and falsely claimed the illness was why the claim was late — a connection the customer never made — and still recovered £0.
Shriya Nevatia had the AI build a personal fashion app from her measurements, photos, favourite stores and budget ranges. The app picks a hero item, builds outfits around it, and keeps a saved list.
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.
Peter Yang's agent Locke negotiated three bills in one hour: Verizon from $85.48 to $70.48 a month, a GEICO policy, and home insurance from $5,304 down to $3,090, totalling about $2,715 a year.
A young woman in Los Angeles upgrading her home electronics lab used AI's 'Chef' agent to find a soldering station under $200 on Marketplace, compare five specific models, have the agent message sellers directly, and negotiate the price down $50 before she picked up the Hakko FX-888D, unboxed and assembled it on camera.
Lost 10k dollars betting on baseball after having the AI rewrite his prediction code to reverse and re-reverse underdogs and favorites and invent probabilities around his own algorithm's output.
Emerson Berlik photographed a necklace and sneakers; the AI wrote listings priced for haggling and posted them to Grailed and Facebook Marketplace.
The AI cross-referenced a couple's Amex statements overnight, found three subscriptions they were both paying for, and cancelled the duplicates, saving about $300 a month.
After Amazon blocked automated login windows, a user built a small HTTP API on a machine they control. The AI SSHes in and calls http://127.0.0.1:8792 to search Amazon and add items to a personal or Prime Business cart (no checkout).
