Flippin' egg ... GPT-6-Astra (medium) just did my full August accounting, completely autonomously, hands-off, with almost no guidance from me. Took 20 minutes and 3% of my weekly quota (so about $1.50, though if I paid per token it would have been a bit more). For comparison, doing this myself usually takes a couple of hours (with some agent assistance, more without), and delegating this to a human would have cost about $100. It's also my least favourite thing to do as the proprietor of a solo business.
