What’s the closest thing to an AI employee you’ve built or seen so far?
I think the most interesting AI use cases right now aren’t the flashy demos- it’s the weird internal AI employees people quietly build for their businesses.
For example, I saw a Reddit post from an ecommerce operator who built what was basically an AI competitive intelligence employee. It monitors competitor pricing, reviews, ad copy changes, landing pages, product launches, and even sudden review spikes automatically every day. Then every morning it sends one summarized briefing with anomalies, trends, and opportunities highlighted so they don’t have to manually check competitors anymore. That honestly feels less like a tool and more like an employee whose full-time job is obsessively watching the market 24/7.
