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 told to find a user's bug, decide user error vs bug, notify the user and tell the developer what to fix; the developer replied in 15 minutes asking if the fix was wanted today or Tuesday.
Shervin Shaikh asked the AI in chat to find any NYC parking tickets under his name and pay them; after he supplied his licence plate, the AI found a $115 'No Standing' ticket in Brooklyn, now $145 with penalties. The first CityPay attempt failed on a billing-address mismatch, but the retry succeeded: $147.90 paid via Stripe Link, confirmed on screen.
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.
The AI agy hooked itself to Discord, set up and troubleshoots SSH servers on his home network, commands it remotely.
A Japanese non-programmer who posts about shochu, his garden and the AI across X, Instagram and Facebook gets a 7 AM message from the AI with today's paste-ready post text, the photo to use and 3-4 posting steps, prepared from a one-page work memo of what is due and what is already posted. Drafts are scored against his rules and only those scoring 80+ are sent; the agent must ask him rather than invent personal experiences it cannot know.
A screen-recorded walkthrough of an app called 'Song List' inside an AI app AI shows managing a personal music repertoire: 264 total songs, 76 marked 'In show,' 188 'Needs work,' across 76 artists. The presenter navigates 'In show' and 'All' views and uses the search bar.
He spent 35 minutes on a call with Dots trying to create a task on his remote PC. Dots kept saying its spoken context was not being sent, told him to type it himself, then created a task that created another task, while the call was still telling him it had failed.
The AI built a Discord bot in an evening that ingests an RPG PDF and stores it in a sqlite vector database for search.
Parker Pannell showed the AI booking a Thai restaurant via OpenTable alongside the $150 suit purchase, $295 in found subscriptions, and drafted email replies. He framed the day as checking off a completed goal with a companion at the restaurant, emphasizing the AI’s calendar and Instagram integration and its ability to act with or without approval.
He used GPT-6 Astra to model a small weed holder and 3D print it. Talking to the computer and getting a real object back felt to him like a Star Trek replicator.
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.
