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.
A testimonial graphic quotes someone: '@the AI just helped me book flights for my euro trip. someone is a nightmare for Americans FYI and muse suggested we try going through PayPal...' The agent worked around Ryanair's US-payment friction.
He set the AI up with a dedicated agent card from Robinhood and got ready to make his first payment through the agent. The payment was blocked.
A PHP flaw finally pushed him to move an old site off WordPress. Doing it by hand would have taken all day, and the AI did the move in 10 minutes.
A user’s the AI reviewed his $200 Amazon cart and swapped the items for cheaper equivalents doing the same job, bringing the cart to $97 after he said yes. He posted that the single task paid for the subscription.
Commenting on the Top 20 post, he says he is in an office football pool where you rank games by how sure you are of the outcome, and he kept forgetting his picks and found it a chore. He gave the AI his login and they worked out rules together: The AI makes his picks each week based on Vegas point spreads and analyst information. The pool site has an awkward interface, and he says the AI handled it well.
He volunteers building tools for his kids' school and activities. Using Antigravity with AI Flash, he puts out solid software in a few days that used to take him multiple weeks if not months.
A team used an AI 2.5 tool to go through large sets of public comments. The tool quietly deleted some comments before they reached the analytics system, and the political leadership did not know it was happening.
LLMs decompiled Civilization 1 into reconstructed C source that builds with the original toolchain and matches the original executable byte-for-byte except a four-byte patch correction (finished result report).
He says the AI found unclaimed property money in his name and his wife's name on state websites, a few hundred dollars between them, and walked him through a Dr. Squatch class action claim step by step.
The AI with Photocraft combined people from two photos of the same location into one photo in 3 tries over 5 minutes, after the AI attempts had changed faces.
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.
