Claire Vo ran AI for several weeks and shut down every the AI she had. Her nine bots include Chief, which sweeps six inboxes and several Slack workspaces, a family bot that prints a kitchen table newspaper for her kids each morning, a helpdesk bot getting five star reviews, and a bot that audits subscriptions and negotiates insurance.
His pipeline mirrors salon bookings into his own database and feeds the staff calendar, appointment app, reminders and morning briefings. Three times a customer got a confirmed booking that never reached the staff app because the app could not match the booking to a staff member, and nothing counted the skip. The fix was an unassigned bucket plus counting every skipped booking.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
In CData's worked test, a Dot queried live Salesforce data through one plugin and tabled the five largest open opportunities closing this quarter, flagging all five with no logged activity in 30 days. One deal was still open six days past its close date; the account used test data, as the post discloses.
Since July 2026 a Japanese creator has run a political clip channel with a pipeline the AI built: it watches source channels, fetches new videos, transcribes them locally, picks highlights from voice peaks and wording, fixes subtitle typos and names, makes thumbnails and titles, exports long videos and Shorts, uploads them unlisted, then collects view and retention data to feed the next round. In 3.5 months it shipped 319 videos for about 1.05 million total views and 1,080 subscribers, though the median long video reached only 268 views; he publishes the failures too, including the agent claiming 'fixed' when it was not.
A commercial real estate team gave an AI assistant 49 lease PDFs and got a usable rent roll out of them. The case opens a training session on handing real estate busywork to connected AI tools.
Independent musician someone lists three career assists from the someone agent: an automatic playlist pitcher that researched genre-matched Spotify playlists and sent cold emails resulting in a placement, an EPK refresh that auto-checked streaming stats and compiled clickable social links, and data-driven venue pitching across new cities. No compensation from Meta disclosed; referral code IH600W shared.
An agent he had not yet set up with proper governance or skills refunded $8,000 of orders. It did ask 'You sure?' before acting, but he blanked on the confirmation and approved it. He puts the fault on his own setup more than on the agent.

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.
