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.
Several parallel AI agent sessions (Opus 5.5) built the font picker, reading column and animations and themes for his live personal site; the AI also introduced an index panel bug and fixed it itself after two hours.
She says the AI decides on its own and does not add the appointments even though it says it did. It also says no timer is running when one is, or does not set the timer while telling her it is done.
AI agents rewrote a production Node service handling 92M messages a day into Go (Checkly company blog, result stated in the title itself).
He put a camera on his rental property boiler and uses AI to read the screen and zone lights, texting him when anything goes outside normal operating parameters.
A creator had the AI plan his real Christmas party for 16 guests from a single prompt: it filled a Shop cart with Retro Candy Christmas decorations under a $75 budget, designed the invitation in Canva, planned the menu and filled an Instacart cart at Aldi within $250, built a Spotify playlist, and produced an 11-page printable host guide. He reviewed and paid for the carts himself; the AI never checked out.
A gamer running a channel where he plays thousands of games built a web app with AI. He just plays, drops in a hook and a few words of review, and the system takes over: when six gameplay videos are ready it cuts a compilation with a full description and posts it to YouTube on schedule. Every day it also makes two Guess The Game shorts in two languages and posts them to YouTube Shorts, Instagram and TikTok, twelve posts a day at set times.
For the better part of a year an AI agent detected AI-related stories for his hcker.news feed and raised about 20 a day for his judgement, before he replaced the workflow with a fine-tuned classifier.
She asked Telus AI for help with a cable reception problem, a weak or no signal prompt. Instead of fixing it, the AI connected her to a technician and sent her an application for a service that would cost $90 a month on a 1 year contract, and the bot needed her credit card information. She said no.
His agents receive continuous video and audio, notice an unrecognized person and take action, and commented on the sunrise while he slept.
He used Fable to rewrite 65kLoC of Go in Rust at a cost of $400.
