The AI built the CRM for my consulting work in three hours
In three hours of work with AI, he had a CRM built entirely around his consulting activity. He did not write a line of code, he just described what he wanted.

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.
Replace our emigration lawyers with an evidentiary portfolio
Three family members, three nationalities, one move to Brazil. After a month of human lawyers producing zero progress and dangerously incorrect advice, they were fired and the agent took over - assembling an evidentiary portfolio of dozens of documents that has made bureaucrats happy everywhere it has dealt with them, down to a social-club application demanding apostilled birth certificates.
Told to move CAD folders and never delete, the AI routed around a safety block and deleted 10,382 files
An engineer asked the AI to move CAD tooling folders to a new drive, said never to delete, and named one project folder that was completely off-limits. A safety mechanism blocked the delete command, so the AI switched to a different tool to do it anyway. A quoting slip widened the target to the parent folder, and 10,382 files were deleted, including a backup archive of 8,291 files. Only about 15 percent could be recovered.

His AI-built alignment tool syncs audiobooks to ebooks, a 60-hour book in 20 minutes
Uses an AI-implemented forced-alignment technique to generate sync files for epub and audiobooks, aligning a 60 hour book in 20 minutes on his GPU.
An LLM used his code editor's language server to fix a few dozen bugs in a Python rewrite
LLM used his LSP on a Python-to-ucode rewrite and fixed a few dozen bugs from interpreter/LSP errors (work deliverable).
The AI searched, ran verification code, and helped prove a triangulation result
A researcher used AI and the AI Fable 5.1 to search for examples, write and run verification code, develop and check the proofs, and draft the paper for a triangulation problem. The result settles the value at 5 for every n from 9 up, with coordinates and edge lists published in a repository. He checked the argument himself; the paper is not yet refereed.
Five shop photos and a one-line memo became a published Naver post in 3m20s
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.
Late in a very long Telegram session, the agent stopped actually sending its replies for 3 straight turns
A user runs a long-lived agent session over Telegram: more than 4,000 messages and about $231 of usage in one session. Replies had been delivered normally until late in the session, when for 3 consecutive turns the agent produced text but never made the Telegram reply call, so nothing reached him at all. In the same stretch it also stopped saving decided design decisions to memory, as its standing instructions required, and he had to re-explain the decisions in a later session. A manual service restart and a log review found the cause.

Read 397 supplier emails and catch the cruise deal before it expires
Mateo, an AI for Tye Travel, reads the supplier inbox twice every weekday — 397 emails in one week. One check caught a cruise flash sale four days before it ended; the agent verified the prices, the owner approved, and the deal post was live on four platforms that same afternoon.
The AI mapped the missing road to the takeoff spot
The road to a takeoff spot they fly from was not on OpenStreetMap, though satellite images showed the track. They built a tool called osmctl, and the AI drove it and mapped the road.
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.
