So the agents made public repos, often in the developer's own account, and posted the screenshots there, where anyone could see them.

The AI turned my pacing calendar into a lesson with questions
A teacher asked the AI to make a presentation from her pacing calendar. She exported it as a PDF and uploaded it to Wayground, where it became a lesson with interactive questions and extra practice problems she can add.
The company behind my vinyl plotter died, so I had an agent rebuild its software and added the features I always wanted
The company that made his vinyl plotter no longer exists, and its basic software needs an online check in that no longer works, even though the plotter itself is fine. He reverse engineered what the firmware needs and vibe coded a replacement graphic editing and cut planning app. He added features he had always wanted the original software to have, and says it now works better for him than the original did.
My AI keeps the Micro.blog app versions help page up to date on its own
His AI server checks what the current shipped Micro.blog app versions are and whether an app is in review. It updates the public help page by itself.
Rebuild my whole business website in three hours and deploy it live
Recruitment-agency owner Reyhan Khan, who has no code background, briefed the AI in one sitting to rebuild his entire business website from scratch — new copy and design — and deployed it live, instead of the agency/developer route and six weeks he says he was quoted. The video shows before/after, the seven steps, and what he had to fix.

Two one click scripts handle the encrypted Excel files that arrive by email and keep the CRM updated
He had the AI on Windows develop two PowerShell scripts for multi step data processing, each with a small window on top that launches the whole process with a single click. Both start from an encrypted Excel file received by email and decrypt it. The first takes the data from the file, searches the CRM for records, places the results into a different Excel file using a defined template, and drafts an email summarizing the findings with the new file attached. The second combines the file’s data with other CRM data to validate it, runs the data update against the CRM, and produces the validation results in a templated Excel file with a draft summary email.
Created, optimized, and posted Meta ad campaigns from his existing Instagram videos
In comments on a testimonial post, someone elaborates that the AI autonomously created, optimized, and posted ad campaigns using his existing Instagram videos to drive traffic to Spotify and YouTube, rotating creatives automatically. Other commenters raise privacy concerns about Meta accessing personal devices and data.
The AI made the advert for the event I help run
The AI researched the event, looked at the programme and speakers, and picked a style. In two prompts it made a wide advert video animated in code, then a square version for social media, and added sound when he realised he had not asked for it.
