A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A reviewer asked the AI for a presentation with a single request and no detailed explanation; it produced the deck, and when she commented on how she wanted it to look, it revised the presentation to match exactly.
An engineer had just had the AI reapply local, uncommitted code changes. Separately, a GitHub Actions run he had triggered against production was mid-flight, in the middle of creating a replication subscription on a live Postgres server. He said undo the work it just started, meaning the local edits. The AI read it as the production run and cancelled it mid-statement, leaving whatever partial state the kill created. The local edits were not touched until he clarified.
Gave the AI a classification task he had been doing by hand and it raised accuracy from 81.3/89.9/92.1 to 90.9/99.3/99.6 in a little over 2 hours.

Opus 5 pointed at his own app created a similar exploit to a known file-upload attack in 3 minutes, showing the app was vulnerable.
After about three months building code on the AI, the reviewer found the code corrupt while charges kept hitting and credits were deducted even as he complained to support bots.

Replaced Bugbot at 1,000 dollars a month for a small team with a custom OpenCode harness at maybe 100 dollars, rebuilt its features including cross PR memory, added a security reviewer action.
Akka ported 65 OSS projects with AI, finished ports.
