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.
Scanned a storybook with his phone and had the AI OCR it and compare it against the list of words and sound patterns his kid knows, flagging the irregular words and new sounds to cover before reading.
Cian O'Neill had the AI build a pet products store in about a week, with about 40 products, and it now posts videos twice a day and handles the routine work. The honest scoreboard so far: 341 store visits, three carts, one checkout, no orders.
He added a feature to his blog that uses GPT-6 Luna to look at each daily comic and add a note about what is in it. Doing all 270 comics cost about 20 cents in total.
He builds the visual overlays used in car inspections in Blender. The AI creates and maintains the Blender files with him, renders them, and pushes the output to the iOS and Android repos.
Facebook version of chelseakauai's Sardinia plan: The AI created a seven-stop Sardinia route map, produced a list of boutique hotels with live availability checks, and emailed hotels directly on her behalf — securing a €240 discount by booking direct instead of through a platform. The AI asked for approval before any payment.
He plugged in a soundbar over S/PDIF and got no sound, and searching online did not help. He asked the AI to fix it, and 10 seconds later the problem was diagnosed, the output was enabled and renamed, and it worked.
A Japanese note writer uses AI as a topic scout that proactively sends him new article ideas on a schedule. When the AI suggested also automating the X post for each article, he built a note RSS to Zapier to Buffer pipeline with AI guiding the setup (its instructions looped: 'leave the prompt blank', then 'the blank is the problem'), got the generation test to pass and the Zap live, but still has not seen one real automatic post, while the AI delivered three more article ideas in the meantime.
Without being asked, Harry McCracken's Dot began flagging incoming messages it judged urgent or important in an inbox flooded with PR pitches. It also resurfaced an email from a freelance author that he had overlooked for weeks and nudged him to respond.
He left Wix and had the AI build his own blog, with AI in Chrome doing the setup clicks in Azure, GitHub and DNS. The new blog went live on 17 September 2026 with all eleven old posts moved across, and since then it has had about a hundred updates and four new posts from him.
LLM maintains the taxonomy and index for his automatically collected browsing archive in an Obsidian vault, used for his writing.
