Real things everyday people got it to do, and how to try them yourself.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Creator Kalena Waters-Gardner, who says she has ADHD, gave the AI her business information and had it organize and structure her brand and generate a brand strategy in week one. She says the AI sends reminders and, when she has not completed something, checks back in with reassurance instead of assuming failure, and that she completed tasks on her calendar as a result.
Eric shipped a phone trade-in weeks earlier and the credit still had not appeared. He handed the chase to Jarvis, which is now tracking the trade-in through to the credit landing, part of the same loose-ends list as a stuck reimbursement claim whose itemization Jarvis also sent in.
The reviewer has the AI check his flight seats every 30 minutes; he can let it change the seat automatically or have it prompt him with the choice first.
Anthony (Neutron Toys, 1.2K followers), in his 40s and taking health seriously, used AI to build a workout plan around his home gym. A screen recording shows the chat with 'Rodimus' asking how many days he trains, requesting photos of his gear, and asking about injuries.
Tech executive Matthew Simari posts that he asked the AI to add his frequent-flier number to an upcoming trip on a partner airline. The AI located the confirmation number in his email, navigated to the booking, added the number, and confirmed completion with him.
Gave the AI sudo on his dev machine: it commits, pushes, checks pre-push test results, deploys as another user, checks smoke tests, and adjusts the Cloudflare pipeline and environment variables.
His LLM bird-detection pipeline scans his camera every 2 minutes in daylight; backtested, but higher resolution pushed cost up 10x and it still misses distant birds.
A Reddit poster set up the AI to trigger on every order/shipped email in Gmail: it opens each product page, compares the current price with what he paid, checks the store's price-drop policy window, and drafts a refund request without sending it. He notes most checks find nothing, but the ones that hit are money he would have missed.
He is moving his cloud use from the US to the EU. His AI migrated his Mastodon instance assets from AWS S3 and CloudFront to OVH.
A man ran a local AI on his own machine that submitted almost 200 job applications over almost 5 days. His only part in the applications was clicking the captcha boxes, and running the work locally saved at least $400 in token costs at the AI rates.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
