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.
Alex (AI investor) saw his AT&T promo expire and his bill rise to $95.28. He used AI to negotiate, dodged upsell traps during the chat, and landed $90/month flat — about $63/year saved in under 30 minutes.
Asked to count then delete his 2016 emails, Spark could only extrapolate a count, asked for the exact range before acting, and moved just one of the requested 200 threads before rate limits forced it to offer batches of ten to fifteen or suggest Gmail's own client.
Reverse engineered the Insta360 Studio binary with AI and wrote a shim for his AMD iGPU so the app is usable.
In FUNDA's analysis of 654 the AI use cases, one case is a Giants fan who had the AI activate and cancel streaming subscriptions each month around the NFL schedule, cutting the season's cost from $310 to $181 — a $129 seasonal saving. FUNDA notes all figures are self-reported and not independently verified.
For years he kept a Photoshop contract just to read and write DDS texture files for his ETS2 and ATS mods. He asked the AI, and now he can convert DDS to PSD and back in batches.
After reading the AI’s summary of an embargoed PR pitch, Ulanoff had it draft a reply. The first draft overpromised a meeting, so he had it strip the meeting references to just agreeing to the embargo and getting images and details.
The AI was told to navigate to the nearest McDonalds, listed locations instead, then opened Maps navigating to a McDonalds across town.
He asked the AI to deal with a broken LG appliance. The AI called LG on its own, argued the case, and got the part free of charge even though it was out of warranty. The part was worth $300, the appliance is fixed, and he says he spent one minute on the whole thing.
Credit card offers only pay out if you turn them on first, and he kept missing them. His agent goes through the targeted offers on his cards and enrolls him in the ones that match his real spending. He calls it free money he was leaving on the table.
He built a home dashboard with AI that pulls a dozen sources into one wall screen for the whole family. It shows the shared calendar, weather warnings, solar and battery levels, car charge and bin days, and it only brings things up when they matter, like bins out tonight or a frost warning.
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.
