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.
Our first circuit board, designed by talking to the AI and ordered in under 10 minutes
The team made their first PCB by chatting with AI in an AI app Desktop through their own PCB MCP server. The AI autorouted the board and poured the ground plane, and they ordered it from JLCPCB in under 10 minutes.
His agent found and reserved him a parking spot in San Francisco today
A man reports that he used his agent that day to find and reserve a parking spot in San Francisco. He had earlier used AI to gather his AWS invoices for a reimbursement.
My shop did not exist when my train left. It was online when I arrived.
At the start of a 2 hour 7 minute TGV ride from Paris to Valence, his shop did not exist. Talking with AI, connected through a new MCP link and without opening the WiziShop admin once, the shop was online by the time he arrived.
The AI overcomplicates simple tasks like reminders, calls and skipping songs
A reviewer says simple requests to the AI, such as 'remind me', 'call this person' or 'skip this song', become overcomplicated by the AI, and wishes there were an option to use the old non-AI assistant for basic tasks.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
The AI built me a page that gathers new polls in one place
He could not think of a coding project, so he had the AI build a tool that checks the poll aggregators for new polls and puts them on one page. He now hears about new polls about five minutes sooner.
The AI built the dual-subtitle extensions he and his wife watch foreign shows with
Antigravity and the AI built the Crunchyroll and Netflix multi-subtitle Chrome extensions he and his wife actually watch with (his wife's travel blog in the same comment left out as too thin).
Rebuild my wedding website with AI after the platform locked me out
Her wedding site on Joy worked until the platform disabled SSO and she could no longer edit it - mid-planning. She rebuilt the whole thing herself with AI from her own requirements list: password-protected bridal-party and admin sections and direct RSVPs, replacing the platform entirely.
Run my VPS health check and updates over SSH from the couch
The AI connected to the user's VPS over SSH, ran a health check and applied updates, all directed from the couch.
The AI’s travel-time map renderer ate gigabytes and put the harbour in the wrong place
The AI made an isochrone map renderer, but it tried to allocate multiple multi-gigabyte pixel buffers and got the Portsmouth bounding box wrong by including ferry routes to France.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
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.
