Let the AI run my Facebook page for 60 days with seven prompts

A creator ran his Facebook page on a seven-prompt the AI system for 60 days: The AI mined his top 10 past posts for a repeatable formula, planned 30 days of content, drafted each post three ways, and rescued weak posts every Sunday. He reports 56.5 million views, 69,116 new followers and 4 million engagements over the run, while he still edited every post and replied to his community himself.

The AI rebranded my old presentation. The fixes ate the hour it saved.

The AI took a 6 month old presentation and updated the branding. He then had to replace images and fix a dozen small things that did not look clearly wrong at first pass. It saved an hour of copy paste work and caused an hour of editing.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

My agent sweeps my target company list twice a week for jobs that fit

He is job hunting in tech, aiming at startups and big tech. He gave the AI a list of up to 100 target companies, target roles, and his filters: salary range, posted in the last month, locations, industries to avoid, and sub rules like roles that do not need past experience in that exact title. Twice a week the AI sweeps the list and brings back matches. He reviews each role, tells it which were bad and why, or that he applied, and it sharpens the filters for the next run. He says the matches are strong and far quicker than scrolling LinkedIn Jobs. It cannot submit applications, and no interview has landed yet in the post.

Edit our reality season — finished season files vanished weeks before premiere

Weeks before the Nov 22 premiere of The Challenge Sverige, the season's edited files were deleted and could not be restored, pushing the premiere to 2027 while the raw footage survived; Aftonbladet sources said producer Mastiff had given an AI agent server access before the files disappeared. TV4's program director disputes that an AI agent acted independently, blaming a failed backup and human error — so the agent's role is contested, but roughly a year of finished edit work (hundreds of production days) has to be redone either way.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

My Dot built me 1,400 sales leads in five hours

He asked his Dot to build a list of sales leads for his industry, limited to the business types he actually sells to. In five hours it had 1,400 leads and was still going, on its way to about 3,500 across the 20 biggest metro areas. He had paid $223 for about 350 leads before, and the Dot's list was cleaner.

Every Tuesday my agent works out payroll for my delivery worker

A delivery driver has the AI run his weekly payroll. Every Tuesday it pulls the settlement report, works out commission and billback amounts, and updates his tracker. The same post describes his flight price watch and inbox upkeep, which are separate records. He says the payroll job used to eat a chunk of his evening.
