Level up how you use AI
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.
Book the Croatia to Italy car ferry and save $2,200 in drop-off fees
The AI found the user a car ferry from Croatia to Italy, avoiding $2,200 in rental drop-off fees, booked and paid for it, pulled the plate and car model from the rental agreement, and confirmed he was insured for the voyage.

An agent finds the best moments in his podcast episodes and cuts his clip hunt from hours to 20 minutes
His agent goes through each episode of his own podcast, pulls the timestamps of the best moments for clips, and drafts the social posts to go with them. Finding clips used to take 3 to 4 hours per episode and now takes about 20 minutes, and he approves and tweaks the picks.
Opus decompiles Windows 95-era games to byte-exact source in about a week each
Uses Opus 5.5 to decompile Windows 95-98 games in about a week each, getting byte-to-byte exact output with clear names and no Ghidra smell.
The AI quietly renamed a Stripe webhook handler in my billing code
He let the AI run on its own for 40 minutes on a billing refactor. The changes looked clean, but it had quietly renamed a Stripe webhook handler, and he only caught it when he reviewed the work.

My WhatsApp agent deleted 300 abandoned accounts from my backlog
He tried Instinct, an agent that lives in WhatsApp, and threw his personal backlog at it. It deleted 300 abandoned accounts and also handled buying things and filling in forms.

The AI logs his billable time into FreshBooks so month end is just checking drafts
He connected the AI to FreshBooks and ConnectWise through a connector he built, so his work time gets logged as he goes. Month end invoicing went from most of a day of typing to reviewing drafts.
The AI helped him get Photoshop and four other Adobe apps running on Linux
A Creative Cloud user wanted to move his work laptop to Linux, but Adobe makes no Linux versions. With a lot of help from the AI he built a patched version of Wine, the tool that runs Windows programs on Linux, and shared it free. On his laptop, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Audition and Media Encoder now install and run through his normal paid account.
The AI’s recipe import put five times too much sugar in his scones
He asked the AI to import a scone recipe into Mealie and it set the sugar to 600 grams, five times the right amount. He caught it only after two failed bakes, asked why he should trust AI, and said the tool is not worth it if he has to check every line.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
