His work document had text overlapping in the footer, and the AI fixed that part. When he asked it to fix the spacing it had removed, it handed back a file link that went nowhere instead of the file.
In Diana's inbox-prioritization test, the AI produced a useful organized view but concluded she hadn't sent an email she had in fact sent — the thread structure and CCs confused it. If she'd trusted the first answer, she'd have sent a duplicate email.
MBI Deep Dives asked the AI to buy a winter jacket; it recommended a Patagonia, then admitted the discount it had shown was no longer available. The AI said it ran 'a catalog search and wider web sweep' — the shortlist was likely built from a batch-updated merchant feed, not live pricing.
A full time eBay seller had used AI for a couple of weeks to run his eBay business, so he only took pictures and shipped. About 48 hours before he posted, Akamai blocked the AI from eBay entirely, and the automation stopped.
57B tokens burned on an AI jq rewrite and nothing usable came out.
A team used an AI 2.5 tool to go through large sets of public comments. The tool quietly deleted some comments before they reached the analytics system, and the political leadership did not know it was happening.
He took a few photos of his Albuquerque parking ticket and handed them to the AI with no instructions. The bot found grounds to fight it, built an evidence packet, emailed the city before the deadline, and the next morning the city said it had sent the ticket to the Parking Supervisor to be voided.
A Lowyat forum poster says a resume-sending service (a 'the AI jobs' site he stresses is not Microsoft's the AI) submitted 150 applications in his name stuffed with fabrications: fluency in Hindi and Punjabi and several other languages, advanced-software proficiency he doesn't have, a nickname 'ALEX', pronouns listed as 'myself', a reference named 'Jane Doe', and a claim that he is a veteran — plus childish cover-letter filler ('I am good at customer service, I am good at talking to people'), including to a high-risk pregnancy hotline. He calls the result absolutely humiliating.
He asked the AI to read everything he has published, 1.2 million words on his site plus his social posts. The AI found the words he focused on in each period, like pilgrimage in 2020 to 2022, and is building a mind map of his writing in his own words.
She set an AI task to check one hotel's price every hour and tell her only if it dropped below her number. Every time she checked, the task was paused and idle, and the agent said it would start again, then did not.
