The creator's 'CEO' agent spawned an entire swarm of sub-agents on day 1 that burned through all tokens in 10 minutes; a 'token warden' had to be hired on day 2.

Run an $800k resale business with no CPA and the AI reading the ad data

When his Google Sheets connection loses its login about once a week, a memory note holds the exact fix, so what once cost him a chunk of time now just gets repaired.
An agent put my whole course on Canvas in about a minute
A professor wrote his syllabi and prepared folders with the readings, rubrics and primary sources, then had an agent upload and organize everything on Canvas. Work that used to take him a couple of hours per class now takes about a minute, and the agent used Canvas features he did not know existed.
Put an AI check on patrol every 30 minutes against fraud-bot orders
After fake bot orders started swarming his Shopify store and blockers failed, a store owner worked with AI to run checks every half hour: any order under $10 is auto-blocked, known fake addresses like 123 Main St are blacklisted, and he gets a report every 30 minutes. The bots still try, but far less often.
