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.
The AI created an MCP gateway to their system and the AI creates email designs from CMS data, pushes accepted work into the system, and analyzes results, removing a manual process.
Hiscox's Chief Underwriting Officer for London Market built an AI Studio 'Tone of Voice' agent that checks documents for on-brand, consistent language. He used it to help prepare two board reports and estimates it saved him six or seven hours, and versions of the agent have since spread to other senior executives and their assistants.
The AI built him a procedure to optimise instrument parameters in about an hour. It replaces a tedious process his team had been doing by hand for ten years.
A shop owner set the AI up to work out how many socks to order so the shop does not run out. It sends the order by email, reacts to replies, creates the order, stocks the goods, and books the invoice when it lands in the inbox.
Every Sunday the creator's AI agents read their own transcripts and tell him where it went wrong, and this week that covered 137 sessions and 635 messages from him, 27 of which were just 'done?' or 'update?'. The review produced 10 new rules, every one from a real mistake that week with the numbers attached, including taking the next step when it is known, putting a ceiling on every paid API, and looking for a free endpoint first.
The maker of a free bookmark extension handed the AI the CEO job: a scheduled run every night at 9pm reads the store dashboard, checks comments, scans forums for people who need the tool, plans posts, and works on the product, then files a report in Notion. Nothing public goes out until he replies go. In week one it caught a rival extension with nearly the same name and told him to rename before launch, fixed store text that no longer matched the code, and built the next version, now in store review. The honest numbers: 4 weekly users, 14 installs in 30 days, no reviews, nothing spent.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI and iDRAC saved him from a midnight trip to a site. GPT could not find the right credentials, but the AI found them in his notes, with some guessing.
The AI and the AI ran an entire short-video pipeline from script and narration to images, animation, edit, QA and upload, with the author only reviewing.
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.
