Email, calendars, forms and paperwork · 219 ideasI had the AI map where agents can stop you and search your devices
A man had the AI build a zoomable Google Map with the parts of the USA highlighted in red where DHS, ICE and CBP can stop people with no suspicion of wrongdoing or warrant and search their electronic devices. He put the map on his own website so anyone can check it.
Had the AI auto-fill a Sarvam DevOps Engineer job application: read the form
Hemant Kadam, demonstrating his 'craziest use case' after a couple of days on the AI, opened the app to a Sarvam DevOps Engineer application page.

Fine Print: review my contracts and draft the dispute

The AI helps me turn school data into public tables and graphics
He uploads his own data and points the AI to specific sources and documents, with examples he made before to show the format he wants.

Uploaded his resume and target roles; the AI auto-applied to 50 jobs while
A young man in sunglasses sitting in his car tested the AI by uploading his resume and target job roles, then instructed it to apply to jobs while he went to lunch. Screen recordings showed multiple browser tasks running and a notification confirming an application submitted to 'ioTech Solutions.' The AI asked for information once for the first application, then reused it — resulting in 50 applications submitted while he was idle.
Extract contact information from emails with staff-built agents
Several Hiscox employees independently built the AI Studio agents that extract contact information from emails, and the duplication was treated as a demand signal: the individual solutions are now becoming a larger shared business project with data science, technology, cyber and risk specialists involved.
