Consultants at the same co-op connect the AI to their calendar, GitHub and ticket tool. The AI works out how their time split across projects, fills in the timesheet day by day with a reason for each day, and each person checks it and approves it before it is saved in Salesforce.
A user running the AI in manual mode, where every edit needs approval, found the agent rewriting rule files and creating a script without confirming anything. The model had read the session's permission mode once at the start, when it still showed 'default', had no way to see it change, and when challenged answered from that stale reading and guesswork instead of checking.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
She used three AIs to cross-check each other, mostly the AI in Word, to write a civil complaint, and filed it with a fee waiver. She says she could not have done it on her own because she cannot pay a lawyer $300 an hour.
His role was cut on Tuesday morning. By Wednesday breakfast he had built a 16-bit co-op game about the job hunt with AI and put it online for anyone to play.
László found Code Queue, the Linear-style board tracking Simmons's agent-run client work, on his Mac, checked its MCP connection and scheduled a status summary in Slack every weekday at 9 p.m. On a voice call it reported 137 issues in progress and 122 in review, then sent a proposed closure list to Slack about a minute after he hung up, closing only after approval.
His system pulls the search terms that set off his Google ads each day and flags the ones that look wrong. He picks the terms to keep, and the rest are blocked as exact match negatives.
Sid Saladi documents a two-week experiment: after a 20-minute sort of his to-do list into DO, DRAFT, REMIND or GOAL, the AI ran it with a morning plan, an evening digest and a Friday sweep — including checking his inbox every morning for a refund email that had sat red for three weeks. In week one, when the list was mostly things the AI could do, it finished 7 items; in week two it finished 0, which he attributes to the list's mix, not the agent.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
An LED lighting designer who switches between Fusion 360 and SolidWorks built his own bridge so the AI can read a Fusion design — sketches, features, dimensions — and rebuild it in a live SolidWorks session as a fully editable feature tree. Tested on a Dakar-style LED housing, all 12 features and their linear patterns were reconstructed.
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.
