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.
In a screen-recorded demo, lifestyle creator Jenna Ricciardi's AI agent Glimmer canceled a subscription she had forgotten she was paying for, one of several delegated tasks shown in the reel.
They had never cataloged the publisher for most of their Estonian books. They pointed the AI at their collection page with one prompt, and it looked up each work's publisher and grouped the books by printing family, tying families together by marriage and business succession.
A Korean the AI guide recounts a Sept 23, 2026 video by investing YouTuber Kim Dante (channel 'Tomorrow's Investment King Kim Dante'), who joined the AI through a US VPN and asked it to list every subscription he pays for, rank them by how little he uses them, and draft a cancellation message for each. Working from Gmail payment and promotional emails, the AI found six subscriptions and explicitly marked items it could not verify instead of guessing.
Each week he drops three files into a folder: an Apple Health export, his Peloton data, and a spreadsheet of extras. The AI runs the numbers through 19 metrics, flags shifts like cycling power dipping after a hard hike, and updates a dashboard he checks to adjust his training.
Set the AI the task of running Parseable locally against another of his apps; it worked around a protobuf limitation by running a proxy, he switched his stack to JSON and got it running.
Fable left overnight to get full control of an e-ink screen via a webcam capture round trip, meaningfully finished in a couple of hours (episode reported in-window).
Blogger Clarissa was flying from Madrid to Montreal because her mother is dying. Her plane broke, the replacement flight was cancelled, the airline abandoned the passengers after a three-hour support line, and she had to buy a new ticket for the next day. Too exhausted to function, she handed the rest to her AI agent, which booked a hotel near the airport, told her what to say to the cab driver, and booked her shuttle for the morning.
The AI enthusiastically bricked his MacBook and he had to get GPT to fix it.
A SimplePost user hit an error while the owner was on vacation with his family. The AI checked the logs, found the issue, fixed it, and drafted the explanation email in Gmail, and the owner reviewed and approved each step.
His charity food pantry needed a barcode scanner and stock checker but could not afford a paid system. He built one with AI in two days, and it now runs on a laptop in the pantry.
