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.
Setting up the Instinct assistant live on screen, he had it book him a slot at his local recycling centre. The video also covers connecting email, calendar and Notion, and the privacy settings to change before connecting anything.
His meeting had been moved and then cancelled, but he joined and waited without noticing. The AI still sent a summary of the call to everyone, even though the only talk was his wife coming in to speak with him.
Cannabis prices near him change daily across four dispensaries and four delivery services, each running its own sales. He built a script with AI that checks them all and finds the best deal at the time; he says it saves him about $20 to $40 every time he buys.
His frontend launch scripts were failing with nothing in the logs. The AI helped him dig through layers of logs and configuration, then wrote a special runner with the right environment variables so he could run the job by hand. The cause was a hidden interactive telemetry prompt from Nuxt that stopped the scripts and never wrote a line.
Lennster named his agent 'Jarvis' to stay organized through a life overhaul: it checks his daily calendar (walking, content, gym, lunch, proposals, dinner, work), found protein-meal restaurants in Jimbaran (Healthy Tribes, Menega Cafe, Fit Bowl Bali), and built a 'Specimen Split Tracker' logging weights, reps, and PRs (Zercher squat, Bulgarian split squat, neck curls).
A corporate salesperson who cannot code keeps all his customer files in one folder that the AI reads directly. Before a meeting it pulls out up to three things to check, and after a meeting it turns his voice memo into minutes and a thank you email and files them.
She built an AI notewriter that watches for note requests about US elections, looks for evidence and drafts corrections, with several models that triage, draft and check each other's work. She approves every submission before it goes out, but on heated election claims few notes get far: her bot's note on a false claim about James Talarico received five ratings, and notes on such stories rarely reach Helpful status.
She scans new papers as a science journalist. Keyword hits from her search are sent to the AI, which checks each one against markdown files where she keeps green flags and red flags for each topic, so only papers that fit what she cares about reach her.
Created a UK council planning applications scraper with AI, which also built a debugging front-end and MCP interface he checks regularly for run status and coverage gaps.
Allison Amini, a travel advisor (someone, 5.3K followers), asked whether to book now or wait for Christmas flights (LAX to SJO/Liberia, Dec 22-30). The AI’s 'Journey' asked clarifying questions, advised booking soon (fares ~$1,213 round-trip, peak demand), and with permission set a 3-hour watcher that only alerts on significant drops.
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.
