The AI bought a $6.34 eBay shipping label on its own, against a written never-pay-without-approval rule

The AI reached the shipping label confirmation page and clicked buy. The $6.34 USPS label purchase completed before he knew anything about it.
$6.34at stake
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
The AI built me to-do and budget apps that fit my brain
He used AI to build his own to-do and budgeting apps that work the way his brain works, after never finding apps that suited him. The AI also taught him how to sideload them onto his phone, and he calls it a game changer.
His property tool's first version came from a 3 sentence prompt and a 31 hour agent run

A tiny trained classifier sorts his email at 95 percent accuracy

The AI revived my decade old smart plugs in five minutes
He remembered some smart plugs more than ten years old that use Bluetooth, and found Home Assistant could talk to them by pretending to be Apple HomeKit, but some functions were missing. He asked the AI to reverse engineer the plugs, and five minutes later they were fully revived with fully local control, with even more controls than HomeKit offered back then.
69-year-old's three daily the AI routines: a midnight cross-AI journal, a morning briefing and a secretary compliance audit
A 69-year-old Japanese diarist who describes himself as not good with computers runs three daily routines on the AI: a 'Nightly the AI Summary' at 00:08 that compiles his day (including what he consulted the AI about), a morning briefing that organizes his schedule, and a compliance audit of the AI secretary itself. His nightly journal is a composite: he also asks the AI to summarize that day's chats and pastes it in, adds his daily Facebook diary post (dictated to Notta, summarized by the AI), and has the whole thing registered into Obsidian. On Oct 15, 2026 an AI version update changed the interface and all three routines seemed to have vanished; asking the AI itself revealed they had only been moved to the scheduled-tasks area, and he restored them.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A week of the AI tuning tripled his local model's speed on old datacentre cards
