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.
Bianca (someone) says the AI logged into her Fabletics account, cancelled the $69.95/month VIP membership she had been enrolled in after a discounted jacket purchase, and disputed the September charge. Twenty-one minutes later she had a full $69.95 refund to her original payment method, not store credit.
He used AI at work the way he was expected to. He asked it to plan a task, answered its questions, and approved the plan. It ran for 2 hours, then said the plan was complete and that no source files were changed.
The AI rebooked the same hotel, room type, and dates at a lower rate as prices moved, saving $179. The author verified the new reservations directly with the hotel and confirms everything held.
Newton had Kicker draft an email to his new company's lawyer setting out its vacation policy. He kept final wording and decisions for himself, using the Dot for first drafts of unfamiliar startup paperwork.
The AI sold the user's car end to end: listing it, handling buyers, collecting CarMax and Carvana quotes, and preparing the licensing paperwork.
Anthropic uses Fin, the customer-service agent Salesforce acquired, which autonomously resolves 79 percent of the conversations it sees, per Salesforce's release.
The Cowork integration appears to have deleted his AI container state. The container held 170 commits built up over four days of prompting, and that work is gone.
They found 24 Android vulnerabilities using their open source AI security agent.
The third case in the same comment: he had the AI call three local companies to get quotes for a fence at his property. Quote gathering for home work normally means three rounds of calls, messages and waiting; his agent made the calls itself. Prices are not stated in the comment.
He is not a developer. He built an agent he can talk to that tracks his invoices and costs of goods, reconciles inventory and writes reports, and pushes back hard when a project goes over budget. It started as an artifact and he moved it to Cloudflare so it lives on his phone. He is now thinking about making it a tool for his whole industry.
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.
