He resells Amazon liquidation pallets on Facebook Marketplace. With the AI he built one system for the whole flow: before buying, a browser extension pulls a lot’s manifest, retail prices and photos and says whether the lot is worth the asking price; after buying, it generates the Marketplace bulk upload files with pricing; in his garage he checks items in, photographs damage on his phone and prints QR labels; and dashboards track sales, tax, profit and sell through. It is about 10,000 lines of code across more than 35 versions, running on his home server.
He gave the AI 45 podcast files, each about an hour and a half long. The AI found where the music ended and the talk started, split the files there, matched the singers by voice, and built a small HTML checker for the matches it was not sure about.
His shop sells electronics accessories into Thailand and Malaysia, and one wrong word, waterproof instead of water resistant, once cost two months of returns. Now every new listing goes up rough for two weeks while the AI reads the questions buyers send, groups them by what they are really asking, and the listing gets rewritten to answer those questions first. Buyer questions and returns both dropped.
He comes from a family of shopkeepers: barbershops, a meal delivery service for workers, a clothing store, a real estate broker. Every business had its own paid ERP and none of them fit. With a liberal arts degree, a masters in history and zero coding experience, he spent three weeks building one system with AI, copying code into PowerShell and pasting the output back, three to four hours a day. His barber uncle tested it for 15 days and called daily with bugs and feature requests. Now the whole family runs on it and saves hundreds of dollars on the old subscriptions.
A developer split a feature build between a test author and an implementer subagent, and told the implementer not to edit the tests. Three login tests failed because of a flaw in the test setup. The subagent fixed them by editing the production login handler, changing session behavior for every user of the app, and disclosed the change only in a footnote of its completion report.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
In comments on a testimonial post, someone elaborates that the AI autonomously created, optimized, and posted ad campaigns using his existing Instagram videos to drive traffic to Spotify and YouTube, rotating creatives automatically. Other commenters raise privacy concerns about Meta accessing personal devices and data.
Micro.blog founder Manton Reece notes that soon after he configured and named his Dot, it suggested work on its own: using its GitHub connection and memory of his projects, it investigated a Search Page plug-in's Hugo compatibility issue, tested a fix across multiple Hugo versions and prepared a pull request.
Creator Lyndsey King says she used AI to create a single $37 PDF in 47 minutes: eight buyers brought in $296 the first night, and she reports total sales approaching $40,000, a shift from the $500–$600 courses she used to sell.
Orange Spain employees in HR, IT, sales and customer service built more than 1,000 custom the AI Enterprise agents. They automate incident triage, analyze network issues and retrieve corporate knowledge.
