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.
Build my own grading LMS on top of Google Classroom
A teacher built his own LMS layer on top of Google Classroom using AI and Apps Script (he names the AI and the AI as both able to drive it): far deeper grading features than Classroom offers, a quick-select comment bank where any feedback he writes can be saved for reuse with one click, and on return each student automatically gets a formatted read-only feedback document both emailed to them and attached to the Classroom assignment. Student data never leaves the district's Google ecosystem.
Opus helped him make 3D sudoku puzzle books that now sell as a printed product
Made 3D sudoku books on paper (SUDOCUBE) with Opus, which came up with the algorithm and extended his Kakuro codebase; books exist as a product.
The AI fixed a CarPlay bug in my car's head unit
He used AI to fix a CarPlay bug in his car's Android head unit. He gave it the piece of hardware and it worked out how to talk to it and fix the bug.
I asked Telus AI to fix my cable. It tried to sell me a $90 a month contract.
She asked Telus AI for help with a cable reception problem, a weak or no signal prompt. Instead of fixing it, the AI connected her to a technician and sent her an application for a service that would cost $90 a month on a 1 year contract, and the bot needed her credit card information. She said no.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Catch two fake Netflix payment phishing emails and report them
The AI spotted two phishing emails disguised as Netflix payment-on-hold notices in the user's inbox, reported them to Microsoft and deleted them.
My agent fixed my signup tracking. The new subscribers were bots.
Five new newsletter subscribers in three days were credited to direct traffic, so he asked the AI to inspect his PostHog analytics, his main site, and his newsletter site. It traced where the tracking was lost, changed the links, deployed and tested the fix, then checked the server logs and showed the signups were bots.
The AI listed legal claims against employers in an industry for his organizing drive
He used AI to make a list of Private Attorneys General Act claims against employers in an industry. The list was made in support of an organizing drive, and he says the tool is almost always helpful on tasks that involve a lot of data.
AI crew built a whole audio tour business from one idea
The creator had a business idea and a crew of AI agents built the entire Redd Walks platform, including the website, the iOS and Android apps, SEO, outreach and tracking, totalling 643 pages with real payments and checkout. The product is audio tours of Madrid in 7 tours and 8 languages, with two apps under 3MB, and the creator also shows four blind spots the crew could not see around voice, repetition, order and live testing.
He had an agent lock down his home network and check the DMZ
He got Astra to go through his network and DMZ. It confirmed all port forwarding was off, hardened his media services, and found 5 PHP apps on the network, none of them running.
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.
