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.
Trade $50 of real money for a week and report honestly
A developer handed the AI $50 of real money on Alpaca for a week (24 September to 1 October) plus $10,000 paper accounts in stocks and crypto, with rules to research first, sell daily and flatten by Friday. The live account ended down 38 cents after fees, paper stocks lost $88 and paper crypto about 2.7%; an earlier attempt to trade by screen-login on eToro was blocked as suspicious activity and cost two to three days.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
His agent keeps its own handover notebook; he just says 'remember that' after each mistake
The operator of a small Japanese company has used AI daily for three months across quote tooling, documents, internal pages and accounting help, and never edits a file himself: after every failure he tells the agent in chat to remember the lesson, and the agent writes it into its own handover note and memory (now 250+ memory entries and a note past 1,000 lines). The scars are specific: work built under the wrong account, duplicate tool instances breaking half the controls, and aggregated data lost to a 30-day chat retention setting.
The AI dug through public Medicare data and flagged billing patterns that look like fraud
A small research outfit pointed the AI at the public 2024 Medicare provider files. It flagged one wound dressing code whose national billing jumped from about $23 million a year to $650 million in 2024, with one Florida supplier taking 62 percent of it, and a pattern of hundreds of family doctors each ordering ostomy supplies for about 175 patients across 40 states while only 15 colorectal surgeons appear in the same data. Some flagged companies have already been caught; others with the same shape are still billing, per the July 2026 enrolment file.
Built an interactive workout tracker app ('DAY 1 UPPER PUSH') with weight
Angel Almenarez Jr. posted screenshots of an AI-generated workout tracking page built by the AI: 'DAY 1 UPPER PUSH' with exercises (Chest Press 4x8-10 Machine 120 LB, Incline Press 3x10-12 Dumbbell) plus an ACTIVE TRAINING BLOCK (Week 1, Week of Sep 21, BUILD phase) with a 4-day split (Upper Push, Lower Quads, Upper Pull, Posterior Chain) for logging weights and charting progress.
Run a household money sweep: exemption, insurance, power, claims
One user listed what his AI did over a few weeks: filed his homestead exemption back to 2024 (about a $4,000 refund on the way plus roughly $2,000 a year), switched his car insurance to Progressive (about $1,500 a year), moved him to a cheaper power plan (about $800 a year), filed 20+ class-action claims for him and his wife (about $500 expected) and applied to 15+ jobs that led to interviews. He put the total at about $9,000, with forms prepared for his approval.
$9,000one time
His voice agent dials for a collections call center doing 8,000 calls a month, and the owner signed at $5,000 a month
A backend developer built a voice agent after work that dials out for his friend's collections call center, which makes 8,000 outbound calls a month, most of them dead air. The agent greets the person, works out if they are interested, not interested or want a callback, and hands live prospects to a human with context. After a free trial the owner signed at $5,000 a month.
The AI built the HTML editor I could not find anywhere
He needed a free HTML editor to paste in HTML code from the AI, but the ones he found were poor. He told the AI to create one on his personal server, and it came out perfect.
The AI put the table over the data on my chart. I saved the fix as a skill.
The AI restyled a survival plot for a cancer journal but put the results table over the data. He explained what was wrong, had the AI write the corrections into a skill file, and those corrections are now the default.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI audited and corrected a family-tree project
The AI audited the author's family-tree project against documents, removed errors, added newly found documents, and added a generational link the author had missed.
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.
