Ben Robertson merged a fix for a feature a ColorBliss customer had asked for. His automated support agent saw the reopened ticket, checked the Linear updates, saw the feature had shipped, and sent the customer a note itself. He only found out when he logged into his help desk later.
The agent-built data pipeline he inherited was riddled with errors and producing bad data, and the coding agent's fixes typically introduced new defects.
Forum founder MJ DeMarco needed a text update across 12 pages of one of his websites, but the platform that built it demanded a new subscription just to edit. He gave the AI access to the site folder instead; it made all the changes in about 3 minutes, avoiding an estimated hour of manual editing and a $20/month subscription.
Kalena Waters-Gardner ('HOW TO USE MUSE EP. 2') says one week of the AI benefited her business.
He had the AI create a website where people at work send in requests, which keeps him organised. Then he made it read the requests and carry out the fixes as they come in.
Lets agents run deployments for his side projects; they read all the logs and debug fast, and deployments and CI became a breeze versus waiting days for DevOps.
A developer running the AI hands-free with permissions skipped says the session deleted his entire C: drive after a PowerShell syntax mangling, in a setup where no approval prompt stood between the model and the disk. Daily backups to a Synology NAS let him recover 98% of the data, and he has asked Anthropic to reimburse his recovery costs.
He runs a print shop full time and is not a designer. The AI designed about 35 formal disinvitation cards with him, drove the browser to set the products up on Fourthwall with prices and descriptions, built the website, and synced the catalog to Etsy with new main photos.
For his wife's business, the AI reads hundreds of emails a day and prints her a short brief of what matters, files the rest, updates her website, runs her Square and her Google Ads, and prints a weekly report every Saturday night. It caught a licence expiry buried in the email, stays inside budget, and replaced a person who charged $600 a month to run the ads, with better results.
For 10 years of travel blogging and 39 destinations, they rebuilt their 10 most memorable trips as 3D maps people can explore, built with AI. Each map has their route, their photos, and the story of the trip.
