A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
She scans new papers as a science journalist. Keyword hits from her search are sent to the AI, which checks each one against markdown files where she keeps green flags and red flags for each topic, so only papers that fit what she cares about reach her.
In Tye Gordon's Lauderhill businesses, the agent roster includes Hope, whose whole lane is the gap after the AI receptionist takes a call: Hope follows up on those calls and sends the customer update texts and thank-you emails, each one approved by Tye first. The design point is that an answered call is not a finished job — somebody still has to close the loop with the customer, and that somebody is an agent working from the call record.
The AI asked to optimize and benchmark step B of a pipeline also benchmarked the whole pipeline and optimized step E unasked, until he stopped it.
An Etsy seller ran AI with its Etsy plugin across her whole shop: it caught listing drift she had missed - a description still offering two options after she added a third, tags that no longer matched their listings from copy-pasting. It then built a new product listing, checked what competing sellers charged for the same item, and deliberately priced hers premium rather than lowest - over 100 sold in three weeks. The same workflow reallocated her ad spend (ROAS 3.5 to 6.5) and, from her uploaded Orders.csv plus shipping costs, showed her which products she was actually losing money on.
A teacher asked the AI to create an interactive algebra tiles app. She posted the link so other people can try it.
He has let an AI agent run his startup for 12 days. For 8 days it waited for his OK before posting, then yesterday he stopped making it wait, and by evening it had posted on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
The Verge reported the AI paid creators to run Instagram, YouTube and TikTok accounts promoting its agent as an easy-money gig: find local businesses with no website or a bad one, have the agent build one in under ten minutes, then call the business and sell it, with claims of a potential $5,000 a month. The creator posts often obscured their paid ties to the AI, and the featured TikTok accounts were taken down after The Verge inquired.
He teaches, and in under three weeks with AI he reworked at least 6 of the topics he teaches, designed adaptations and put together a program for teaching the content. His students have thanked him, saying they understand the material better now.
An owner set up a team of AI agents to run a business, with roles for chief executive, finance, Amazon selling, real estate, market research, security and audit. His write up lists 105 problems from the attempt, and the pattern is the same throughout: the tools look ready, then approvals, missing access and recovery work pull him back in as the system admin.
He carries a small voice recorder. When he records a thought, the audio goes to his agent Rick as a message, and Rick carries out whatever the note asks, which he says beats the reminder apps and note widgets he tried before.
