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.
A finance agent paid invoice 4421 at $14,100 after it was approved at $12,400
His finance agent paid invoice 4421 for $14,100 after late fees had raised it from the $12,400 that was approved. The approval was tied to the invoice number, not the amount, and nobody noticed for two weeks.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
The AI built a home screen widget showing my kid's school lunch menu
While he was doing the dishes on Sunday, the AI made him a home screen widget that shows his kid's school lunch menu. He says he never would have made it himself.
My sales close rate went from 20% to 75% with AI
A corporate salesperson who cannot code keeps all his customer files in one folder that the AI reads directly. Before a meeting it pulls out up to three things to check, and after a meeting it turns his voice memo into minutes and a thank you email and files them.

The AI can run my house lights through Homey. It is slow, but it works.
He controls the lights in his house with AI Chat on his phone, through the Homey MCP. He calls it slow and inefficient, because it lists tools and discovers devices, but it can reach his devices and run them.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI drives DaVinci Resolve to add analysis to his sim racing lap guides
A sim racing creator has the AI drive DaVinci Resolve three ways: generating timeline files, writing and running Lua scripts through the program’s scripting engine, and full computer use. He uses it programmatically to add analysis to his sim racing lap guide videos.
The AI ran Blender and built my dental design tools
A dental worker had the AI run Blender on his own computer and write Python add-ons for his design work. It built a tool that turns a shell into a based model, one for basic aligners, an automated baseplate designer, and a custom impression tray designer. A fifth add-on, for copying dentures, did not come out as well.
