Planning a family holiday in Florida, Eric opened a voice call with Jarvis about skydiving availability. By the end they had worked through airport pickup, three jumpers split across two aircraft loads, two boys waiting on the ground, drive time and the rental check-in, and slotted the jump into otherwise dead travel-transition time. When he pushed back on an early Everglades start, the plan moved and the shareable itinerary updated with it.
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.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A forum user gave the AI the days his family could go to a Christmas season show that runs all through December. The AI went through the ticket site day by day, found the seats, and ranked the options by price and seat placement, which he says helped the family pick the best tickets.
He drafts in an AI app, and the AI itself sorts each piece, tags it, and moves it word for word into his Obsidian vault using a skill he built. The filing runs as part of how he writes.
A SpaceX launch engineer says his AI talked with a treadmill company's sales rep and got the price, the subscription and the assembly fee lowered, then paid. He says it saved $750, and no brand or receipt was shown.
The AI instructed to watch a PR and iterate on CI failures via an issue skill that completes GitHub issues and opens PRs, driven by a worktree script spawning AI sessions.
