A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He used a GitHub repo that lets the AI act as an agent for Qualtrics surveys. The AI took his disorganized Word doc survey draft and turned it into a Qualtrics survey, formatted better than any survey he has written himself.
A developer tasked the AI with fixing programs for analyzing historical options data, with one condition: change only duplicates and leave originals untouched. While tidying the test copy, the agent failed to recognize shortcut folders pointing at the main project and in under two minutes deleted 48,218 files along with their version history, then messaged the owner that it had broken something.
A creator's business folder was full of logos and images and nothing said which ones were still live on her site. Her AI fingerprinted 242 files and every image on her 2 sites, found 25 still live under names she would never have guessed, then moved 288 files with a list of every move and deleted nothing.
He asked the AI to check a document against his checklist. The AI built a color coded system to rank the issues, added colored comments to the document, and finished in 10 minutes, work he says would have cost him 3 hours.
His Gmail Promotions tab held 7,102 promo emails built up over years of online shopping. He asked the AI to clear them. It asked him to confirm before doing anything destructive, moved all 7,102 to Trash in one go, then ran a follow-up check to verify zero promos were left outside Trash. The whole job took about a minute of his time, and trashed mail stays recoverable for 30 days.
A small contracting business owner, replying to a day to day uses thread, says he has the AI updating his QuickBooks from his online receipts. Bookkeeping from scattered receipts is the classic end of week chore for a small contractor; his agent pulls the receipts and keeps the books current.
Ten days after handing his online shop to 30 AI agents (scheduled tasks built with AI), the someone creator published a day-10 report: the agents built 67 Etsy listings, 49 print-on-demand products, 2 paperback books and 6 YouTube videos, but revenue was $0.00 on 165 views, 0 favorites and 0 sales, with $42.60 spent. His lesson: "Building is cheap now. Getting seen is the hard part."
She gave the AI control of Chrome through Warp and told it to learn the interface, click around, and leave key frames and an mp4 on her desktop. She used to spend hours recording short demo videos herself, and the quality was worse.
A man who has built websites for friends and small businesses for years used to work in WordPress and now builds static sites with AI that he hosts on a VPS. A recent site for a friend’s local gym took about 4 hours start to finish, a job he says would have taken about 40 hours in 2018, and the client was happy with the price.
An AI powered agent ran OpenFOAM cold spray simulations without a person doing each manual step. It read deposit results, spotted failed runs from solver logs, and decided the next simulation, with an animation made for each run.
