Diana at AI Agents Library gave the AI 500 loose files from her real business desktop. It proposed a folder plan first, she approved it, and it filed 490 where she wanted them, held 10 back for review instead of guessing, and caught all 48 exact duplicates and all 34 renamed ones.
Constraints: zero ad budget, no existing audience, ~4 hrs/week of human time; assets: a subdomain, Cloudflare access, DodoPayments. Ruled out: custom AI songs, mixing/mastering services, automated day trading, 'information arbitrage'.
Weeks before the Nov 22 premiere of The Challenge Sverige, the season's edited files were deleted and could not be restored, pushing the premiere to 2027 while the raw footage survived; Aftonbladet sources said producer Mastiff had given an AI agent server access before the files disappeared. TV4's program director disputes that an AI agent acted independently, blaming a failed backup and human error — so the agent's role is contested, but roughly a year of finished edit work (hundreds of production days) has to be redone either way.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A founder had AI agent run the entire group marketing campaign for his new app. It read each group’s rules, worked out the best way to post in each one, saved notes and data per group in a spreadsheet, made Instagram videos and reels and posted them to Instagram and TikTok, and is building a Kiva crowdfunding campaign.
Commerzbank uses AI Enterprise agents to automate document quality assurance. Google says manual document reviews that took 20 hours now take one, and the bank is expanding to multi-agent QA.
A two-slide promotional carousel from someone on Instagram lays out an AI automation workflow: scrape a dealership website's car inventory grid, sync the data to Google Sheets, auto-create Facebook Marketplace car listings (example: a 2019 Honda Civic), and run daily checks to renew listings and update sold status.
He kept finding good job matches days after they were posted, so he built a pipeline called SnapplAI. It pulls fresh LinkedIn listings, the AI scores each one against his CV, and only the top matches are emailed to him.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A Low Code Studio creator gave the AI a single prompt describing a Compliance Tracker app; the AI designed the data structure, created the SharePoint list with columns and data types, and wrote the YAML for all four screens. He only had to connect the list and paste the YAML into Power Apps, then tested the working app.
Jay Kranda, the Innovative Tech Pastor at Saddleback Church, has the AI check the church's Rock RMS people-management database every Monday and Thursday at 5am. It reviews all 124 scheduled jobs in the system and reports back in plain English which ones are erroring, so problems surface before Sunday instead of during it.
