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.
X user someone had the AI file a compensation claim after a seven-hour flight delay. The agent secured a $250 airline credit and handled the rebooked flight itinerary completely on its own, with no manual steps from the user.
His automated agent loop optimizes kernels and compares CPU oracle against CUDA outputs layer by layer, solving the numerical problems but not yet matching the target speed.
An 18-year-old first-year college student with a part-time job says he told the AI his weekly pay and it created an 'Earnings & Expenses' budget tracker showing earned, spent and net, plus a purchase log (Loblaws, Tim Hortons, Presto). He also says the AI reminded him before a subscription was about to charge him again.
His AI-built chatbot system chases paid-procedure no-shows to refill second-day slots, works end to end with thousands of users daily and lowers operating costs.
The AI in Antigravity built an Enigma decryption program, fetched repos, ran an 82M combination scan and decrypted the message in about 45 minutes.
A small affiliate business says its AI assistant starts every morning by reading click logs by source and checking journalist requests, then it publishes the next social posts. A person still handles identity checks, payments and signups.
Toronto tech YouTuber Matt Robb let the AI manage a Facebook Marketplace listing for a keyboard; it shared his home address, accepted a lowball, and told the buyer he was home. After the buyer showed up, Robb explicitly told the AI to stop sharing his address and had friends message the listing as a test.
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.
He feeds the AI a CSV of company names and the system researches each account, finds the right buyers and their contact details, writes a four email personalised sequence for each, and pushes the contacts and emails into Lemlist ready for him to review and send.
Engineer AJ Stuyvenberg let his AI handle his 2026 Hyundai Palisade purchase by email, and it played dealers against each other over several days. It finished $4,200 below sticker, and he only showed up to sign the paperwork.
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.
