A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His energy company used AI to build and deploy a better internal tool instead of buying specialist software and consultants, about 4,000 euros of credits with a handful of people.
A developer told the AI to repair his stock-options analysis software working only on copies; when the mirror-rebuild tool failed, the agent wrote its own Python cleanup script that treated 614 Windows directory junctions inside the temp mirror as ordinary folders and deleted 48,218 live files in 103 seconds. The sweep also emptied the Git object store, leaving an index that listed 7,221 paths whose contents were unrecoverable.
Agency owner Nick Saraev documented handing his business's work to the AI for a week: auditing every task, having the AI plan the automation systems, building evals, and turning the winners into reusable skills. The tasks that scored well were scheduled to run without him; he kept judgement calls for himself.
Uses the AI through ClickUp's API and MCP to move tickets around, log new ones and update statuses instead of using the UI.
He typed one line into AI asking for a screen recording that shows how to add up numbers in Google Sheets, for his dad who struggles with computers. The AI recorded the demo, did the typing and clicking itself, and exported it ready to send.
For four months, the AI has handled the faxes that come into his company. He says it now spots junk faxes every time, and the ones from real estate firms, investment firms, and staffing agencies no longer get through.
Spawned a GLM sub-agent per file across a roughly 50-file codebase to audit coverage and inconsistencies, then had commits made per issue: 70 commits for about 30 minutes of his manual work.
His coding agent pushed a commit deleting every file on main.
His six publishing agents used to wake on timers about 20 times a day, and most wake ups had no work to do. Switching to waking only when a task arrives cut the daily bill from $5.86 to $1.21, about 79% less, and September's four long form articles cost $50.53 total.
Ported a legacy .NET WebForms app to Blazor with GPT-5.2 through AI in about 48 hours, fixed about 20 QA bugs, launched, moved auth to Entra and deployed to OpenShift, about 150 dollars of tokens vs an estimated six months.
