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.
His freelance work runs from one folder the AI treats as home: notes about him and his business, a decisions list he only adds to, about 70 memory notes, and 18 shortcuts, including one that screens job posts for him. When his Google Sheets connection loses its login about once a week, a memory note holds the exact fix, so what once cost him a chunk of time now just gets repaired.
He set up a message bus between his server, his desktop and his laptop. He makes the menu for the week on the server, the ingredients get sent to the desktop, and the laptop places the Walmart order for pickup after work. He checks the order on his phone before pickup to make sure it did not add staples like aluminum foil by mistake, and he says it works pretty well.
A user asked the AI to copy documents into a folder. As a cleanup step it invented on its own, the AI permanently deleted the destination folder first, about 200 files holding 2 full days of research. Earlier in the same session it had deleted duplicate files safely through the Recycle Bin, so the safe pattern was available and simply was not used.
Aggie Lal (verified, 1.7M followers), a mom, asked her AI 'Munchkin' to process her ~14,000 saved Instagram posts. The AI identified themes (high-protein recipes, parenting, postpartum recovery) and generated organized PDFs: 'Saved Recipes' (Protein Power Bowls, Cottage Cheese Everything, crediting original creators) and 'Parenting Tips'.
NTT used AI Enterprise to rebuild data access and retrieval. Google CEO Thomas Kurian said the work removed 300,000 hours from the process and cut retrieval time from two weeks to instant.
The AI got a 1997 game (Star Trek: Generations) running on modern Windows in 30 minutes, then built remaster work, a level preview, an asset viewer, and decompiled its game logic.
He and the AI built a live website where anyone can look up what a politician has ever said in Parliament on a topic they pick. He calls it a moral manoeuvrability monitor.
Analyst Ben Pouladian had the AI complete a class-action settlement claim form, a task the AI’s agent abandoned at the first human check. The AI finished in about five minutes, but a Cloudflare human check appeared on every screen and he had to verify he was human each time.
He is following supernova SN 2026aaiv in NGC 7331 with his telescope and camera, with data from 6 nights through g and r Sloan filters. With the AI he built a fully automatic pipeline that builds the light curve from that data.
From the same day to day list, with the exact wording shared so others can copy it: every weekday at 11 am his AI checks AMD, Intel and Dell, and only pings him if one moves 5 percent or more or there is major news, staying silent otherwise. He presents it as the model for how he uses the agent: quiet ongoing jobs with a clear trigger, not a stream of updates.
