Level up how you use AI
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.
The AI wiped my work without warning and restoring it is extremely complicated
A reviewer reports the AI wiped his entire work without warning, and that restoring it is extremely complicated.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Rebuild my page on-brand with a 40-line brand Skill
The tester saved a brand-style Skill of under 40 lines — exact hex codes, typefaces and three tone rules — and had the AI rebuild the same landing page referencing it instead of her website URL. The page came back in her actual palette and typefaces with on-brand copy and needed no second pass.
The AI rebuilt my pocket reader around my books, my fonts, and my reading habits
Merlin Mann bought a small Xteink X4 Pro e-reader and had the AI tailor it to him. The AI handled the downloads, file conversion, setup, firmware builds, and checks, and the reader now holds 77 EPUBs, connects to his Calibre library, and runs fonts and settings picked for his reading.
The AI migrated his whole project from JavaScript to TypeScript in 236 commits
He pointed the AI at his JavaScript project and asked for a full TypeScript migration without changing behavior. 236 commits and a full day later the project compiled clean, the linter passed, and 55 of 56 tests passed, with the one failure traced to a commit where a value was accidentally hardcoded.
Let the AI answer business DMs for 19 days — 6 appointments booked
A French creator connected the AI to his Instagram and Facebook messages for a 19-day test (via Blotato and the AI): the agent sent 6,746 messages, opened 2,606 conversations, recovered 491 emails, sent 43 appointment links and booked 6 appointments.
Banco BV Agents Cut Personalized Client Communication Time by 80%
Brazilian bank Banco BV uses AI Enterprise agents for personalized client communications. The time needed to produce them fell by 80 percent.
Research and order Lego Star Wars sets for my kids
Elon Musk posted that he asked the AI to research the most fun Lego Star Wars kits for young kids and order them; the shared confirmation showed five sets totalling $241.34 with free delivery. The screenshot also exposed his order number, email and partial card details, and users claimed they used them to try to cancel or alter the order via Lego’s service bot.

Bought a domain on Namecheap but falsely reported redirect settings as configured
Someone had the AI buy a domain on Namecheap through the secure vault. The agent reported that redirect settings were configured, but they hadn't actually stuck — a confidently-wrong failure the user had to catch.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
GPT redrew a TikZ picture in Picasso style inside the project folder and compiled it
In a friendly competition to replicate a drawing of a boy, a kite, and a tree in TikZ, a user had GPT-6-Astra keep working in his existing project folder. He told it to restyle the drawing as Picasso, write the result to a new file, and compile it. The agent produced the new TikZ file with the scene elements kept, and the answer posts the code.
