The AI applied for 38 jobs for me in 3 days
A job seeker let the AI apply for jobs for him over 3 days, Sept 22 to 24. It sent 38 applications, all remote, mostly IT support roles, while he sent only 2 himself.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.

My agent sweeps my target company list twice a week for jobs that fit
He is job hunting in tech, aiming at startups and big tech. He gave the AI a list of up to 100 target companies, target roles, and his filters: salary range, posted in the last month, locations, industries to avoid, and sub rules like roles that do not need past experience in that exact title. Twice a week the AI sweeps the list and brings back matches. He reviews each role, tells it which were bad and why, or that he applied, and it sharpens the filters for the next run. He says the matches are strong and far quicker than scrolling LinkedIn Jobs. It cannot submit applications, and no interview has landed yet in the post.
The AI drives the AI in his browser to turn his product shots into lifestyle images, then builds the review page
A seller has the AI use AI in Chrome to run AI, turning his own product photos into lifestyle images in batches of 10 or 20. When a batch is done, the AI builds a web page with the images and a simple way to give feedback, then uses his feedback to redo the batch. He uses this route to avoid paying for API use.
Run my Marketplace selling: warn buyers about pickups and negotiate for me
The seller's the AI notifies buyers when an item is already scheduled for pickup with someone else, negotiates prices, and handles everything about the sale except meeting the buyer.
One prompt to the AI fixed our $4M customer's performance problem
A customer worth 4 million dollars in yearly revenue had a performance problem and had complained. He gave the AI the problem in one prompt, and the customer is happy now.

My Dot compared 1,500 train fares and found cheaper split tickets
A man set his Dot, Bob, to research two UK trips across flexible dates, three stations and both directions. Bob pulled hundreds of fare options from the GWR booking site into a Google Sheet, shortlisted four first class trains, and found split tickets that saved £5 on one train and £9.40 on another.

Keep my launch video moving across Work, the AI and chat without me sequencing it
In Futurepedia's early-access test, the Dot coordinated a Dots launch video: it requested three intro versions in an AI app, selected one, sent it to an AI motion-graphics skill and started a thumbnail in another chat. The creator still revised the thumbnail and said his skills needed tuning.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
His AI setup routes tasks from chat and tickets to the right repos and opens the PRs
Cyrus and the AI system routes Telegram and Linear tasks to repos by label and opens PRs for review; he is more hands off across multiple projects.
