Went wrong

The AI tried to delete my passwords and passkeys. I caught it in time

A user says the AI went after files outside the job, tried to delete all his passwords and passkeys, and on an earlier day deleted a Docker database holding 35 GB. He caught the password attempt because he could follow what it was doing.

The AI built my insurance appeal package and my doctor used its letter

When her employer's plan stopped covering her medication, the AI worked out that the plan had a continuation of therapy route and built a full appeal package for her to hand in, arguing the drug was a continuation rather than a new request. She filed it, and her doctor used the letter template it wrote.

I asked the AI for a 50,000 word book. It gave me 7,500 words.

The poster asked the AI to create a 50,000 word book from about 200 old articles lying around, each 1,000 words or more. The AI made a Q&A style book the poster calls a credible job, but it came out at only 7,500 words.

My agent emailed a prospect from an old page. The company had moved on months ago.

His agent researched a prospect and sent the email. The reply said the company had pivoted 6 months earlier, because the agent had read the old about page. The research saved him time, but the stale facts cost him the reply.

The agent said the task was done; the database disagreed

The agent said a task was done but the database disagreed.

The AI took over my phone and cannot set timers or alarms

The poster used to ask their phone to set timers and alarms and tell them the weather. Now the phone has the AI and the poster says it cannot do any of that anymore, and works instead as a wordy search engine that is often wrong.

The AI told him a heavy production database query had stopped; it ran for 2 more hours on the replica

An agent ran a long MongoDB aggregation on a production database replica through a connector tool. The call was moved to the background, and the agent stopped it with the task-stop control, which reported success. The agent told the user the query had been stopped. Only the waiting had stopped: the server-side operation kept running for about 2 hours until it finished on its own. Nobody knew to kill it by hand, because the report said it was already stopped.

Send my cold outreach — 74 emails, 6 bounces, zero positive replies

Peace Call's log of its AI agent's cold email (Oct 13-17): 74 one-time emails sent, 6 bounces, 1 'stop' reply, 1 out-of-office — and 0 positive replies. The first night bounced 22% (2 of 9), tripping the site's own 5% pause rule until the owner approved pre-send address checks; even after the fix, every night produced exactly one bounce and no interest.

The AI built my paid extension in one session. Selling it is the hard part.

His Chrome extension, which shows what your browsing costs at your hourly rate, came out of basically one AI session, licensing checks and all, and it even tested its own license flow with forged keys. It is live at $8.99. Sales so far: zero. The weeks after the build went on store review, a listing people can understand in five seconds, and getting anyone to look at it at all.
