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.
Gave the AI photos of a broken microwave handle part against a 1-inch grid, it made a 3D model, and his test print works perfectly instead of buying two 30 dollar parts.
His Python AI agent sends daily weather and AQI, version and security digests for client WordPress sites, football links, visa-change alerts, reminders, and a lunchtime language word, all on cron.
In the same week as his treadmill buy, a SpaceX launch engineer says his AI got several quotes for new car tires, paid for them, and scheduled the install. No prices or shop names were shown.
Agency owner Rui Fu (someone, 253K followers) demonstrates the daily system he shows for the AI: an 8 AM scan of the last 24 hours of Instagram DMs, categorised into brand partnerships, collaboration requests, fan messages and spam so he wakes up to only the important ones. The tutorial also shows an auto-reply rule for guide inquiries and offers his prompt guide in exchange for comments.
His agents lived on his desktop, so he had to walk back to the computer to read what they left him. When APX got an Android app, he did not install it himself. He asked Roby, and it pulled the ADB skill and installed the app over USB.
VC Ian Park posted a Korean-language the AI chat confirming two Prestige-class Korean Air flights (Seoul Incheon–Singapore, Sept 26–29) and a Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore twin-room booking with free cancellation to Sept 24. After linking the Google Calendar connector, the AI added 11 Singapore itinerary items (flights, courses, jogging, checkout).
A Korean solo developer's two-day diary of putting the AI to work as his team: GitHub issue labels split between him and the AI across marketing, planning, design, QA, operations and finance, with a project board and roadmap milestones built in about an hour; the AI runs QA on each deploy event and files issues; customer inquiries are answered through an admin MCP connection; and morning routines from a one-time setup (7 AM English lesson, Google Analytics analysis, issue briefing) arrive unprompted. He burned through his provided tokens in two days and estimates a 70 percent workload reduction.
He asked the AI to set a timer for 4 minutes. The AI said it would set the timer, but no timer was set at all.
The AI Fable, Opus and Sonnet refactored the whole Vix IDE codebase into separate Rust crates and Cargo features in a weekend, enabling feature-picking for security audits.
Mom Kam Williams demonstrated hands-free the AI use via voice commands while multitasking: a Portland weekend itinerary (Powell Butte, Wildwood Trail, Rose Test Garden, Japanese Garden, waterfalls), categorized packing lists (City Days, Hikes & Falls, Wedding Look), a drafted email to her housekeeper, and a coffee order.
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.
