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.
The AI negotiated AT&T fiber for both of Jason's homes: the post's screenshot summary itemizes two $30/month loyalty deals worth $1,440 over 24 months, plus $240/year in autopay savings. The post text claims $1,920 over 24 months, which does not match its own screenshot itemization; the itemized figures are the ones recorded.
AI agent populates and keeps updating home lab inventory and documentation in Netbox.
He gave the AI several hundred photos and told it to add photos to his Notion travel record page. It picked about 30, added them, and also made a route map from his GPX data.
An LLM configured his Rocky server in about 5 minutes; the server is still running with no effort from him after 6 months.
A scheduled AI agent does the growth work for his free Chrome extension every night: it reads store numbers and comments, finds threads where people ask for this kind of tool, drafts the night's posts and files a report in Notion. Nothing public goes out until he replies go. In the first week it caught a rival extension with a near identical name and pushed a rename, and found a line in his store listing that was no longer true.
The AI wrote thousands of lines of Blender Python over a week for mesh inspection and cleanup, fixing parts from his annotated render previews.
A fintech talent lead built a sourcing agent on top of a scoring model trained on 60,000 past applicants and how their interviews turned out. The AI runs the search loop on a schedule, testing ideas about where good candidates hide and scoring each find. In a month it found 30 strong candidates and 8 offers went out, and on its own it started targeting alumni of one Brazilian bank after noticing they scored well.
He used AI to make a Telegram channel for NHK's Documentary 72 Hours. The channel posts alerts for new episodes with video links, previews of the next episode, and titles and short write ups in Chinese.
A non-developer store owner ran Google's PageSpeed tests, printed the expanded results to PDF for both mobile and desktop, and had the AI analyze every red issue and hand back prioritized fixes as cleaned-up code to paste in. His speed score rose 10-15 points and the speed index dropped from 3.2 seconds to 1.2.
Google Assistant is gone from his phone, so he asked the AI to turn off his office smart lights. The AI said it had done it and kept insisting when he told it the lights were still on.
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.
