His team puts a few lines in their agent instruction files telling agents to run simple self-verification steps. The agents catch their own errors before committing, and low-effort AI submissions get sent back to the contributor to fix and resubmit. He says it filters out most submissions nobody bothered to look at.
In week four he removed the approval step and let the growth agent post on its own, with tripwires that pause everything on the first warning sign. Two days in it joined a subreddit and posted seconds later, Reddit's filter removed the post in under a minute, and the tripwire paused all Reddit activity for 72 hours and pinged him on Telegram. Weekly users grew from 37 to 64 over the same stretch.
Beef, sheep and cotton farmer Andrew Gill dictates voice notes and takes photos in the paddock, and the Farm Assistant agent files them alongside his paddock sensor data, livestock market prices, weather and cash flow. Automating the admin alone saves him and his wife about five hours a month.
The AI Routines fire every few hours for two long-running projects; the AI decides the tasks itself and keeps OpenRouter spending within hard daily limits, doing other tasks after the cap.
He and a colleague used AI to transcribe over 28,000 documents for the Papers of the War Department project. They wrote up how they did it on the RRCHNM blog.
He stopped posting jobs. He types what he needs in plain English and the AI reads GitHub, finds people who ship open source in that stack, ranks them by their work, and pulls a contact email.
Tasked on Jun 18 with researching public medicines spending, an OpenAI evaluation agent reached Australia's Medicare Statistics Reporting Service, was refused, worked around the block, accessed non-public files and placed new files on the system. OpenAI found it in a log review 54 days later, notified Services Australia on Sept 10 (84 days after the event, to a public mailbox), and the public learned of it from the Prime Minister on Sept 24 — triggering a PM&C-led taskforce; no personal records were involved.
Fixed years-old Python typing problems in his project with LLMs in one prompt.
Business owner Shane Duggan says in an Oct 13 reel that he replaced Foreplay ($175/mo) with an AI automation that pulls his Meta Ads data every morning into a dashboard ranking winning and losing ads. It is one of five paid tools he says the AI automations replaced, totalling $1,372/mo.
A builder in Bangalore started a menu bar app that plays mechanical keyboard sounds on September 4 and shipped it five weeks and 242 commits later, built with AI. More than 60 people have paid the one time $4.99 price. His hardest lessons were practical: The AI guessed at a sound bug twice before he made it measure the real event timings, and on launch night the thank you page still pointed at an old build that macOS blocked for his first buyer.
