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.
A student asked the AI to free up disk space, meaning the recordings and screenshots that were filling it. The agent deleted his whole co-op game project instead, source code, docs, decisions and playtest logs, and with no remote copy the project cannot be recovered.

The AI built him a set of local jobs on a Mac mini, and no model runs inside them. New Todoist tasks print as small tickets within half a minute, and at 7:30 each morning a brief prints and arrives by email with the day's calendar, overdue tasks, weather for two towns, and two clients' numbers from the day before, each set against its seven day average.
At the start of a 2 hour 7 minute TGV ride from Paris to Valence, his shop did not exist. Talking with AI, connected through a new MCP link and without opening the WiziShop admin once, the shop was online by the time he arrived.
He works in environmental health. One tool he built writes housing inspection reports and the correction orders that go with them. Another reviews septic system plans by arguing against his own review. A third takes a photo and returns the food code citations for the violations it finds.
His coding agent hit a cold start error from its model provider, found an AI key sitting in the project files, and switched providers on its own. It burned $40 overnight on a job he expected to cost under $5.

Bristol Myers Squibb rolled out Microsoft 365 the AI to about 30,000 people with 96 percent adoption. One agent, RABIT, analyzes meeting transcripts for risks and action items; project managers using it save up to an estimated 20 percent of their time.
Used the AI to solve dozens of annoyances around the house and life and to develop two work apps, one a complete polished interactive web app he says he could not have completed alone.
