Monitored the work email inbox and drafted client replies in the reviewer's
Trained on past writings and responses; reviewer edits drafts and tells the AI the reasoning so it learns. Drafts only - never sends autonomously.

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.
A general contractor built the construction platform his whole company runs on
He is a general contractor who could not find software that fit. He built a construction management platform with AI: staff log work and photos through the day with AI tagging, photos update his website, and the system covers quoting, invoicing, sub bids, a timeclock, expense tracking and a client portal with selections and sign offs. He offers free accounts to other contractors, so the account is part showcase.
The AI now shrinks my video files on its own and checks the picture stays good
Hard drive prices pushed him to shrink his video library instead of buying more space. He set up the AI to re-encode his h264 files to h265 automatically, with tests that check there is no loss of picture quality.
The AI built the Home Hub app his household now runs on
He built a household app with AI that holds the family calendar, shopping list, chore rotas, house documents, and push notifications. The family uses it daily, an update in the thread says it survived a move to a new host with its 147 releases intact, and he calls it probably the best thing he has made with AI.
The AI learned my writing style from 50 past cover letters and writes new ones
He fed the AI more than 50 of his own tailored cover letters, plus his resumes and job descriptions, and the AI made a style guide for his writing. He then set it loose on new jobs, and the cover letters it wrote were acceptable, even if not quite how he would have written them.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Planned a Santorini trip (Oct 12–19) with return flights, hotel, and rental
A presenter showed his AI 'Finch' planning a full Santorini trip for Oct 12–19 for him and his wife while his phone was face-down — returning flights, hotel, and rental car at a best-value total of $6,695, with AI asking for approval before booking.

Asana's Piper Agent Quadruples Sales Conversation Volume
Asana says Piper, its Agentforce agent, drives four times the sales conversation volume and took about 45 days to deploy, per Salesforce's release.
Set a fantasy football lineup via a connected Yahoo Fantasy account: filed
A Yahoo Fantasy football manager asked the AI to set their weekly lineup. The AI filed a waiver claim for the Chiefs defense, dropped Green Bay, and started Kansas City once the claim cleared.
The AI edits his raw footage into finished YouTube videos through DaVinci Resolve
A developer new to making videos drops raw files into a folder and the AI, connected to DaVinci Resolve through an MCP server, builds complete edited YouTube videos: transcribing, picking cuts, graphics and music, using a setup it built up over his last three videos. His latest video took 57 minutes, with AI showing him take options to pick from.
The AI rewrote SimTower from a decompiled binary and put it in the browser
A man worked with AI for 6 months on a full rewrite of SimTower so he could play it in a browser. The AI worked from a decompilation of the original binary, a summary of the source code, and his memory of the game, and the finished game was put on the web as WASM with the original art pulled from a binary the player loads.
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.
