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.
Karol says she asked her AI 'Hedwig' to audit her forgotten subscriptions. Screen recordings show a 'Subscription Before and After' dashboard dated Oct 11, 2026: recurring charges cut from 22 to 5, and monthly cost from $149.11+ to $58.73+ — about $90 a month saved — after which she lists the services she deliberately kept.

The AI ported the user's mobile service to a new provider in under 60 minutes, cutting the ongoing cost by 75 percent.

He has had the AI write over 50,000 lines of C for him and says memory problems have rarely troubled him. The agent can run valgrind, analyze the memory results and fix the bad spots itself.
Opens the AI and says this is bothering me for Linux desktop rough edges; it fixes them in the background, documents changes, and pushes his configs and dotfiles to a private git repo.
