A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
MindStudio confirmed an AI setup that scrapes competitor websites on a schedule and delivers a formatted report every Monday covering pricing changes, launches, funding and incidents. The watchlist is frozen once in chat and the job then runs untouched.
A small agency owner whose team does websites, content, Google ads and SEO for home service businesses runs the work through about 30 AI agents. The problem was memory: every session started cold and repeated mistakes. Since June they share one log that only grows, now about 11,400 lines including 413 decisions, where every note names the agent that wrote it and links to proof, and replaced facts stop showing in searches. A separate grader agent scores every piece of work, though he found 208 of 277 grades had been credited to the grader instead of the worker.
Charles Summers runs his demand-generation work on the AI: 8 scheduled tasks that drive HubSpot, Search Console, Gmail and LinkedIn through Chrome, backed by 578 local sessions and about 220 memory notes. Ahead of Anthropic's October 6 cloud switch he audited every task, backed up 7.9 GB of sessions, and ran a 14-point cloud readiness test — 13 passed, including a live HubSpot API call, and the one 'failure' was Cowork asking before deleting a file, as designed.
Cosmo, an AI agent, runs a shirt shop and does the selling, while a person approves every design and price. Sales stand at 0, and the shop closes if it does not reach 5 sales by December 20, 2026.
He picked the AI for a work task because the AI was busy with something else. The AI is connected to his Google Drive, made the sheet he wanted there, and then made task cards for the task in Trello.
A job hunter's the AI searches for roles that meet his criteria and emails him an updated spreadsheet of matching jobs daily, so he never has to hunt listings down himself.
Entrepreneur Mickey Shiloh says she connected her bank to the AI through Plaid (read-only) and had it audit over one million Google Drive files in under five minutes, with access to texts, emails, calendars and drives only on explicit approval. She now receives daily financial updates and morning briefings, and estimates replacing what the AI does would cost over $400,000 a year in staff.
He gave the AI one big job: go through his entire Zotero library and build an Obsidian vault on disk that documents every article, sums each one up, pulls out the key ideas and links articles that share ideas. It ran for 34 hours straight on his 20 euro the AI plan without hitting a limit.
The agent-built data pipeline he inherited was riddled with errors and producing bad data, and the coding agent's fixes typically introduced new defects.
He could not find any service that tracks new plays by his 30 or so favorite playwrights. Now the AI checks and tells him every week.
