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.
He wanted the AI to compare pricing across the two data centers he uses. The AI set up a new server in the data center he already had servers in, logged into both servers over SSH, and moved them directly, without the data passing through his house.
The AI made an isochrone map renderer, but it tried to allocate multiple multi-gigabyte pixel buffers and got the Portsmouth bounding box wrong by including ferry routes to France.
His agents lived on his desktop, so he had to walk back to the computer to read what they left him. When APX got an Android app, he did not install it himself. He asked Roby, and it pulled the ADB skill and installed the app over USB.
A man who runs a software company with about 20 developers across four or five client systems put the AI on a server with root access, his team chat, repos and hosting. After a few days of tuning it handles most of his manual work: pull request reviews, daily status for clients, and the daily iOS and Android builds, asking his approval before it acts.
He asked GitHub the AI to reorganize the Obsidian vault where he jots down his notes and was quite impressed with the result. The AI did the work using Obsidian bases and the obsidian.md CLI.
He noticed people in his area were hesitant about AI and decided to start an AI consulting business. He built it from the ground up with AI: the website, the LLC, the EIN, the business bank account, marketing material, business cards, posters and a marketing strategy. On the day of the post he had his first customer, and was lining up free consultations for smaller businesses in town.
A high school student sent his study guide PDF to the AI and had it build a website with a quiz style practice interface using the guide's own questions. He says it works well and beats making practice sets by hand when time is short.
Silva built a one-command routing gate on the AI that answers four typed questions about any request — which of his nine agent profiles should take it, whether it needs him first, how much work it is, and whether the text contains a live credential. On five real requests it flagged a key-shaped string at 0.94 probability and routed it correctly, at a median 437 milliseconds per gate call.
He says some tools disappear because a chatbot can now do their job reliably. The AI restored a corrupted video for him, something he would previously have used a specialized tool for.
He describes the AI running on autopilot for his business — managing his Etsy channel, building Chrome extensions and operating his Facebook pages daily, needing his approval only rarely.
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.
