Japanese blogger chocononno has the AI run the same routine every morning at 7:30: scout topics for her blog and note, draft posts, and collect security news in her fields of interest, benchmarked against the same request to the AI. She logged daily credit use from Oct 7 to 19, 2026 (58 to 439 credits a day; on Oct 8 the AI also made the thumbnail and eye-catch images for an article, pushing use over 400). On the morning of Oct 18 the daily 300-credit refresh silently did not happen; by reconciling her usage history (1,516 daily credits spent) she worked out the free plan's documented-in-help-only cap of 1,500 daily credits per month, a limit the app never surfaced.
The AI with Photocraft combined people from two photos of the same location into one photo in 3 tries over 5 minutes, after the AI attempts had changed faces.
Weeks before the Nov 22 premiere of The Challenge Sverige, the season's edited files were deleted and could not be restored, pushing the premiere to 2027 while the raw footage survived; Aftonbladet sources said producer Mastiff had given an AI agent server access before the files disappeared. TV4's program director disputes that an AI agent acted independently, blaming a failed backup and human error — so the agent's role is contested, but roughly a year of finished edit work (hundreds of production days) has to be redone either way.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He had the AI produce an animation with a voice-over inside a sandboxed setup. The direct routes to the audio tools were blocked by container limits, so the AI found another way to generate the voice, and the finished piece plays.
His household setup sends him, his wife and the kids the week's meal choices to vote on. He scans pantry barcodes with his phone every few weeks to keep the inventory current. After the vote, a list is built from the recipes and weekly staples: The AI shops it through the Kroger API while the AI covers Walmart and Food Lion looking for cheaper items. He reviews the picks, adjusts, and schedules pickup at whichever store is cheapest for each part. The setup saves the family $20 to $30 a week.
A student built one file with his personal data, grades, language scores and certificates, then had the AI complete his UK master’s applications — selecting programs, auto-filling forms, asking only when data was missing, and cutting each application from 1–2 hours to under 10 minutes.
The AI built his daughter's NFC card music system in about 2 hours of iteration, working seamlessly on card place and remove using depth camera detection.
His self hosted Bluesky PDS broke after bsky.app added a new CORS header. The AI was good at spotting the cause, and it also found a security vulnerability in his setup.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Let Fable work overnight on llama.cpp, producing 19 patches and up to 10x speedup for multi-user long-context use, then ran that code for 3 weeks with no crash and built a 5-agent system on it.
Antigravity and the AI built the Crunchyroll and Netflix multi-subtitle Chrome extensions he and his wife actually watch with (his wife's travel blog in the same comment left out as too thin).
