My first model designed with AI 4 is a popcorn bucket

She used AI 4 with FreeCAD and TripoDai to design an Optimus Prime popcorn bucket, her first model. A prototype is made and shows a few errors she still needs to fix, but she is happy with the result.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.

My agent joined my home server over Tailscale and set itself up as my homelab control point

He joined the AI’s cloud computer to his Tailscale network and gave it SSH access to a restricted user on his home Ubuntu box. After a series of proceed replies from him, the AI set the rest up itself. It can now run commands and browser work through his own hardware, and he uses it as the control point for his homelab: Docker, VMs, his NAS and Proxmox. The setup uses a dedicated non sudo user and SSH keys, with no open ports.

Scrub my phone number off data-broker sites, on a schedule

A directory-listed the AI called Spam-Call Scrubber finds its owner’s phone number on people-search and data-broker sites, submits the opt-outs, finishes the confirmations, and re-checks on a schedule. It replaces a paid data-removal service with a standing bot.

HobbiesWent wrong

The cron job reported ok — its message was never delivered (failure)

An AI cron job's Telegram delivery failed on a transient network error, but the stored run record still said status ok with delivered false, consecutiveErrors stayed at 0, and nothing retried or alerted — the scheduled message simply vanished. The failure was only visible by digging into the run diagnostics; anyone watching the chat or the job's status saw a healthy run.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
