One user listed what his AI did over a few weeks: filed his homestead exemption back to 2024 (about a $4,000 refund on the way plus roughly $2,000 a year), switched his car insurance to Progressive (about $1,500 a year), moved him to a cheaper power plan (about $800 a year), filed 20+ class-action claims for him and his wife (about $500 expected) and applied to 15+ jobs that led to interviews. He put the total at about $9,000, with forms prepared for his approval.
A researcher studying rare zero sum congruences wanted to split a 629 number interval into as many disjoint zero sum subsets as possible. He used AI to help with the implementation and the computational search, including randomised searches for the larger subsets, and found a partition into 86 zero sum subsets covering the whole interval. Whether 86 is the maximum is still open.
Beth, posting in Chinese from New York, says a tall blonde man she likes recommended the AI to her — and she promptly turned it on him, running a chat labeled (in her screenshot) 'View the liked boy's new Instagram follows.' the AI’s analysis showed that although he claimed to have cut ties with his ex as of April 2026, he is still following her and never unfollowed, and had minimized four to five months of reconnection as 'contacted a bit a few months ago.' She notes this kind of follow/unfollow tr
Princeton agency KANE built an AI pipeline that scores prospect fit from meeting notes, prices the work from past projects, drafts the proposal and has the statement of work out for signature within minutes of a yes. Co-founder Michael Kazantzis said a process that took weeks now happens almost within minutes in a day.
His dad lost the magnetic board games he used on road trips. He had the AI research and build simple digital versions of the games, and his dad plays them now.
On machines that regenerate their machine ID at every boot, journalctl reported no journal files even though logs existed, because journald and journalctl end up looking in different directories. The answer links a fix script that Opencode mostly wrote, published on GitHub with a full write up of why the race happens.
His mostly nonverbal autistic son can read sight words. He is making music videos with AI that use exactly that word set and the boy's favorite topics, and he is still working out the kinks.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
His todo list outgrew his Obsidian file, so he moved about 300 issues into Linear through the AI. He then refined the roadmap by talking with AI while driving.
He had the AI set up his Twitch profile and says it does not look too bad. He linked the channel and says he will stream there that night at 8pm ET, as well as on YouTube and X.
Travel creator jordentually had her AI analyze her Instagram content and produce a decade-long itinerary scheduling visits to all 197 countries month by month from 2027 through December 2036 — a concrete multi-year roadmap for her stated 197-country goal.
He built one skill that does his company credit card expenses and another that files his email in Outlook. Both were manual jobs he hated. Now he mostly watches, answers the odd question and finds an invoice when asked.
Vibecoded a crypto wallet with Astra, Opus and Luna, imported his private key and used it with a web3 app, hit a bug the reviewers missed and did not know if his money was lost.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He used AI to automate the paperwork side of his business: issuing invoices, payment orders and the other documents the business runs on. The work used to take a whole day. Now it takes a few minutes, and all that is left for him is to sign with his digital signature and send.
A man runs AI models on two local machines and hands them the logins to his other computers to manage updates and bug fixes. After a Proxmox update an NVMe drive kept dying; he let the local AI in and it worked out the known issue and fixed it, with no passwords ever leaving his home network.
A man fed a video of his golf swing into AI and worked on what it told him to fix. His average score dropped from the low 100s to the mid 80s, a gain he says he would once have paid thousands of dollars for.
Ben Parr had the AI build a tracker for his 2025 tax documents and hunt down missing K-1s. The agent organized the paperwork and chased the missing forms.
Noah connected Spotify to his AI and asked for a playlist built from his already-liked songs but limited to tracks he has never actually listened to, as a way to surface new music from his own taste history. The AI can also just play his liked songs on his phone or computer on request.
