Level up how you use AI
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.
My three agent run companies shipped green tests all day onto a page that did not render
A man ran three the AI companies for ten days, each with a CEO profile, an org chart and a task board. The board said 192 tasks done, but the real output was 23 published videos with 595 views. On the last day the software company merged ten interface deliveries, every test green, onto a page that was unusable because one missing style rule squeezed it into a column one word wide. Nothing in 374 tests checked how the page actually looked.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Run car tasks hands-free — order coffee, book dinner by voice
XAI's the AI Voice 3.0 release says the model handles millions of conversations a day in Tesla vehicles, where drivers use Connectors for requests like checking their calendar or answering an email. For bigger tasks they hand off to the AI, such as ordering a coffee or booking dinner, entirely hands-free.
His agent cuts his films into shorts on its own
His agent takes his finished films, makes short clips from them, and posts the clips itself. He reports the results have been great.
The AI repaired my broken file. It opens now.
A file of his broke in a format with no documentation, after the app crashed while he was typing a ratio. He threw the file at the AI, it repaired the file and sent it back, and the file opens now.
The AI turned open map data into his car's format, a months-long job done in a week
The AI took about a week with light steering to convert OpenStreetMap data into his car's map format, a project that would have taken him months to a year, and he now pulls fresh maps that work on the car.
My agent is merging years of my writing with a friend into finished books
Two friends wrote fiction together in chat for years. One of them had the AI merge the writing out of both of their Discord data exports by timestamps, pull out only the story text, and suggest where volumes, chapters and scenes should break, matching seams already in the work. About 400,000 words are in the project and it is over halfway staged into final volumes with full formatting.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Booked Savoca & Sons via OpenTable for a 7pm date night, then
Cole Bennett's agent 'Milo' sent a Monday morning summary, suggested a date night, curated Italian options from his saved reels (Rosetta & Vine, Savoca & Sons, Marchetti's), booked Savoca & Sons at 7pm via OpenTable under his name, then offered to order white roses and had Moon's Flower Shop deliver a $238 bouquet the same day via AMEX authorization.

Three days of the AI on a small home computer produced two working sites
He ran AI for three days on a headless ThinkCentre Tiny in the corner, driving it from a browser. Out came a learning page that walks through one job of an AI agent from order to approval to publishing, and a playable online photo darkroom where visitors expose their own photo and the file never leaves their browser.
The AI does his boring paperwork in his own logged in browser: reserve duty refunds, national insurance, flight check-ins
Outside code, his biggest win is boring paperwork. The AI filed his reserve duty refunds, sorted out his national insurance payments and did his flight check-ins, working in his own logged in Chrome. Each job is about ten minutes of work, which is exactly why he kept putting them off. He gives each area of his life its own folder with a CLAUDE.md and a notes file, so the money stuff does not mix with the rest.
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.
