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 scheduled task on his Mac fired at 3 am, ran AI on his notes folder, read his git log for the last 26 hours, and wrote one video proposal as markdown. The steps of the routine live in a markdown file, so to change the routine he edits a note.
Carlos Diaz, host of the Silicon Carne tech podcast, said on social media: 'I saved $2,300 this weekend, in just an hour and a half.' Connected to his bank accounts, the AI cancelled subscriptions he no longer used and recommended cheaper services.
He had the AI gather his SPARQL training materials and present them on a website in a way that is easier to engage with. The site is live on the SIB Swiss GitHub pages.
X user someone asked the AI to review their finances and claw back cash. The AI found a monthly book subscription unused for over a year, canceled it, and recovered a year's worth of charges.
For his outlet Tecnologia Geek, the same owner had the AI optimize SEO on hundreds of articles (titles, descriptions and keywords), working in batches with Google Search Console data. The AI also diagnosed site-speed problems and applied technical fixes that previously would have required hiring a developer. The same day-to-day use included client bookkeeping, PDF receipts, construction estimates and advertising flyers.
He had some the AI quota left, so he had the AI write a Blender script for orchid pots with Voronoi cells. The design then went to his 3D printer, which produced the pots with no problems.
A Korean automation instructor sells an AI skill kit for Naver Blog and documents his own test on a real shop: he handed the skill five shop photos and a one-line memo, and it wrote the post, placed photos, a video, a map and tags, and completed a scheduled publication in 3 minutes 20 seconds. With a reservation set, Naver itself posts at the chosen time even with the computer off.
Plant-based nutritionist Natalie Golba typed a request to her AI 'WALL-E' in iMessage; it pulled 12 ingredients (cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, zucchini, bell pepper, tomato, cilantro, dill, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, salt) from her detox-soup recipe into an Amazon Whole Foods cart totaling $30.79, and footage shows the groceries delivered the next day.
Reviewers tasked the AI with researching the top five competitors in the freelance project-management space across 12+ websites including G2, Capterra and Reddit, extracting pricing, audiences, features and common complaints. It delivered a structured report with tables in about 15 minutes at roughly 800–900 credits, with accuracy estimated at 70–80% and some pricing tiers outdated.
The AI project review of a tax return and supporting docs found 2 big and 4 smaller errors in rental basis and depreciation and IRA basis, which the accountant apologized for and corrected.
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.
