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 defence lawyer built two free the AI for her own practice. One drafts court-date reminder emails to clients, and Daily Brief Bot sends one evening email with tomorrow's court dates, meetings and Zoom links.
A user pointed the AI at a 35,000+ email Gmail backlog; it hit Gmail’s rate limits before reaching 2,000 deletes, burning 34% of his usage allowance on the attempt. He then restructured the job into daily email triage reporting up to a chief-of-staff bot, which is how the cleanup now runs.
A man patched almost 10 devices the day before posting by prompting his local the AI or AI agent through a small connector that gives it access to the whole fleet only when he asks. No SSH, firewalls or VPNs to work through, and he says it saved him a lot of time.
Used the AI to reverse-engineer a neural network accelerator in a Chinese WiFi camera SoC and implement an ONNX compiler and runtime, resulting in a working 20 dollar AI smart camera.
A small contracting business owner, replying to a day to day uses thread, says he has the AI updating his QuickBooks from his online receipts. Bookkeeping from scattered receipts is the classic end of week chore for a small contractor; his agent pulls the receipts and keeps the books current.
Since the end of August he has added three new CI servers to his own setup. The AI wrote each NixOS setup and he checked the work, so now he can rebuild any of the servers from scratch in minutes.
Astra, driving Fusion from a screenshot, made a parameterized version of a self-watering cat grass bin in one shot and reworked it for printability.
Dan Peguine's the AI watched his fully-booked doctor's cancellation queue and booked a same-day slot when an opening appeared. The case reached X as a quote-post by Meta executive Alexandr Wang, so the amplifier is promotional even though the underlying report is a user's own.
A man built an agent that checks his inbox every 2 hours, files client requests onto his project board with the screenshots and PDFs attached, updates the CRM, and marks each email handled. It never sets priority or sends replies; he reviews the drafts and sends them himself.
A shipwithmuse.live user asked the AI to call Spectrum and lower their bill. The AI got the monthly bill from $75 to $40.
