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.
Over four weeks of evenings, an AI agent wrote the firmware, the live web chart, the Node-RED automation and the enclosure CAD for his radar stair light, driving a live Fusion 360 session through its scripting API. He reviewed, printed and measured, and the second half of the video lists what the agent got confidently wrong, including a radome gap that landed on exactly a quarter wavelength.
He set the AI to check OpenTable every 10 minutes for a restaurant table for 3, using the OpenTable connector to keep token use down. When a slot opened in the morning for the next day, it booked it immediately. He got no confirmation in the chat, but found the booking confirmed in his OpenTable account. The watch used 1.48 million tokens in total.
After three months with Home Assistant OpenCode and the free Big Pickle agent, a homeowner says he has written no YAML at all. He asks in plain words and it builds his dashboards and automations, like a goodnight routine that turns off downstairs lights, locks the front door and sets the thermostat, and it found the old guest mode condition that was blocking one automation.
The AI reads analytics, Search Console and Partner Center twice a week and produces an actions report, plus a weekly strategy review that sets the next week's plan.
Her AI Tay produced an 8-page printable birthday party plan ('Shine Like a Star') with a $700 budget breakdown; she approved it and Tay set three calendar reminders.
Got the AI to build a focus app for his Mac; he uses it daily and says he does more good work with it.
He gave the AI with GPT-6 Astra the measurements of his kids room and what it needed, a divider and a desk for each kid. It built the layout, rendered it in Blender, and made a complete shopping list with the exact furniture models and a ceiling rail for the curtain.
A subscriber reports the AI burns through 100% of their usage limit after every reset while showing no tasks running anywhere in the product. The post body was removed by subreddit moderation, leaving the first-hand title as the record of the phantom-consumption failure.
Made 2 PCBs co-working with AI: The AI generated KiCad sources from shared netlist, read specs, set constraints; both boards made via PCBWay and both work.
He runs a Funkwhale music server on a virtual machine. Using his own notes, the official docs and the AI, he moved it from version 1.4 to 2.0.12, said it went very smoothly, and wrote up how he did it.
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.
