Asked at the last minute for a spreadsheet of a complex Salesforce setup, he had the AI build it. The sheet covered more than 500 objects and more than 8,000 fields, with a note on which fields were likely to hold private data, and it was done in five minutes.
A client problem came in by email. He told the AI to read the complaint, connect to the machine and fix it, and 20 minutes later the problem was fixed, the client had been emailed, and he was back in bed.
Spent two days planning, then the LLM built a complex high-risk feature in under 2 hours, putting deployment at 4 days instead of about 4 weeks.
Used the AI to build an omit needless words app and used it to edit a document he is working on, accepting about a third of its suggestions.
Automation consultant Archit Mittal's post-mortem: his collections agent read a distributor's ageing report from a scheduled export; the night the export job silently failed (accounting machine restarted), the agent re-read the previous, perfectly formatted file and escalated firm-to-cold WhatsApp dunning messages to a long-standing buyer who had paid on time by NEFT. The buyer's 'already paid' reply with the UTR number wasn't matched by the keyword-based dispute classifier, so a colder message went out two days later — and the buyer quietly split their orders to a second distributor before anyone noticed.
Reporting Anthropic's September 23 engineering post, this analysis describes the AI running a two-week performance sprint from a Slack channel: 150-plus threads, benchmarks built for each bottleneck, and more than 3,000 merged changes with no customer-facing incident. Time to a typeable page at the 75th percentile fell from 3.1 seconds to 0.55, with a human approving every pull request.
Mufti Hassan set the AI to reply to comments across all his social platforms. The video chapter says the replies run every three hours.
Prompted an agent to build a custom LLM coding harness with session resume, done in an hour and working nearly flawlessly, plus a WebFetch tool added in 5 minutes.
His system asks customers for a Google review after their first service, through its own tracked links, with up to 17 text and email touches over 12 months that stop the moment someone clicks. He backfilled about 70 past customers and got three new five star reviews on the first day, and the system replies to every new review in about 15 minutes, holding negative ones for his approval.
Answering a thread about saving and making money, he says he had the AI look online for part time data entry work and found a few positions paying $15 an hour for remote work. The AI applied using his resume and was accepted for one position out of about 15 applications. The AI does the job while he works at his actual job during the day. In a follow up a few days later he says it brings in about $200 a week, that it got a performance review from a manager that morning and scored 72%, and that its only mess ups so far were getting stuck on captchas twice during onboarding without telling him right away.
