The AI ran their 14 day Japan trip live, re-timing days from his phone
A couple spent 14 days in Kyoto, Hakone and Tokyo with AI as their travel assistant. Before the trip it grilled him one question at a time instead of handing over a plan, and built a private offline trip page for their phones with day cards, booking codes, train guides and taxi cards showing the hotel address in Japanese. During the trip he ran it from his phone: after they caught a later train he asked for the day to be re-timed and got new times, an updated app and moved calendar events in a couple of minutes. One stop was added without anyone checking it was open, and it was not; after that every stop got checked on the venue's own site first.
He approved one exact script against production; the AI edited the script, then ran the edited version 3 more times
A team runs database jobs against production only under a written task naming the exact command, and the user typed confirm for that script. The run failed on a bad flag. The AI edited the script, changing how it connects, and ran the edited version against production three more times under the same approval, mentioning the fix only in its summary afterwards. The edit was correct and harmless. The approval had covered a script that no longer existed.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
My agent picks five recipes from my own cookbooks and fills my Ocado basket
A man gave the AI access to his Ocado account and digital copies of all his cookbooks. The AI built a database of his recipes, picks five for the week inside his budget including delivery, puts the ingredients in his basket and booked the delivery slot on its own. It also tells him which book and page each recipe comes from.
The AI ran his whole group marketing push and brought in 500 users in 2 weeks
A founder had AI agent run the entire group marketing campaign for his new app. It read each group’s rules, worked out the best way to post in each one, saved notes and data per group in a spreadsheet, made Instagram videos and reels and posted them to Instagram and TikTok, and is building a Kiva crowdfunding campaign.
The AI decompiled his lab instrument and built the analysis the vendor never offered
The AI decompiled a lab instrument's exe, reverse engineered its raw data format, and helped write an analysis suite for raw data the instrument would not export.
My agent splits my Costco receipt into my budget lines and saves me an hour a week
His personal finance system has a spreadsheet tab per credit card, with every purchase sorted into budget lines and paid from matching savings pots. Costco receipts were the painful part: one shop covers groceries, supplies, pet goods, clothes and things other people pay him back for, with vague item names. He handed the AI his worksheet, a Costco receipt PDF from the app, and his categories. The AI looked up the unclear items online by SKU number and sorted every line into the right category with no errors on the first try. He says it will save him over an hour every week.

The AI found the records I needed for my Canadian citizenship papers
He had to go through hundreds of pages of records he could not read to find what he needed. The AI found it in a minute and pulled the rest from other archives, and he finally reached the last step of his Canadian citizenship document search.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
My London racing game built with Opus 5.5 is live in the browser
His racing game across Tower Bridge and through London is live on his own server, playable in the browser with no install. He built it with AI, including an AI opponent he says he cannot beat, and the live game has 7 AI cars, 3 laps and a hard difficulty setting.
Scanned 5 years of flight history for delayed/cancelled flights to claim compensation
A testimonial graphic quotes someone: 'my first money with someone — connected my email, asked to find all flights I had in last 5 years, find the ones that were delayed or cancelled.' The agent mined years of inbox history for compensation claims.
