Prove a buyer's damage photo was AI-generated - and lose the case anyway
An Etsy seller of almost two years got a case opened with a photo of a broken frame that did not match the material she actually uses. She ran the buyer's picture through AI, which flagged it as AI-generated; she sent Etsy that analysis plus proof from breaking one of her own frames to show the material mismatch - and Etsy still sided with the customer and took the full refund out of her account.

About 30 agents run his marketing agency's client work on one shared memory
A small agency owner whose team does websites, content, Google ads and SEO for home service businesses runs the work through about 30 AI agents. The problem was memory: every session started cold and repeated mistakes. Since June they share one log that only grows, now about 11,400 lines including 413 decisions, where every note names the agent that wrote it and links to proof, and replaced facts stop showing in searches. A separate grader agent scores every piece of work, though he found 208 of 277 grades had been credited to the grader instead of the worker.
