A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Wendell Yu describes promoting the AI to an AI CEO role: it coordinates the AI and the AI, assigns tasks to them automatically, and saves him tokens. It is the second of five first-hand the AI cases in his video.
Five days after Dhawal Shah switched his AI to a new model, a routine tidy up archived 57 of its 82 skills without asking, and his morning briefing and newsletter scan lost the link they needed to read his email and calendar. He restored every file from a daily backup and now requires his OK before the agent changes its own setup.
Added the AI rules and skills to split Terraform PRs into the smallest mergeable units, resulting in cases like 40 PRs with 38 approved and merged immediately.
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.
Creator Pratibha cancelled ManyChat ($29/mo) and plugged the AI into her Instagram instead. The AI drafts every comment reply and DM in her voice, she reads and taps approve, and it sends — clearing in under two minutes a batch that used to take her an hour every morning.
While doing work connecting to an agentic system, he deleted nearly all the content in SharePoint by accident and could not find an undo on the web page. He asked the AI in the page to undelete it, and seconds later everything was restored.
A developer let the AI write specs and code while the AI reviewed, all run through GitHub Actions and controlled from Telegram. Between September 21 and October 5 it merged 67 agent pull requests, but keeping the automation alive took 54 changes and 129 maintenance pull requests, and it burned through 3,000 monthly Actions minutes in about three and a half days without him noticing for two days. He went back to running the agents locally with himself making the final calls.
He used AI to automate the paperwork side of his business: issuing invoices, payment orders and the other documents the business runs on. The work used to take a whole day. Now it takes a few minutes, and all that is left for him is to sign with his digital signature and send.
She connected Granola to the AI. Now the action items from every call go straight to her Gmail tasks.
Today he turned Thomas, his AI agent, into an actual employee. Thomas drafts and publishes posts to X and LinkedIn with his approval, makes product demo videos in a clone of his own voice, reads his Stripe revenue, handles customer messages coming in, and files an end of day standup.
