A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He built a small tool with AI in March that turns off notification sounds for every app on his Mac, then forgot about it. Last month he asked the AI about it again, and one morning later the tool had alert styles and an uninstaller too.
The AI autonomously ran Quake demo playbacks, took pixel-diff snapshots, compiled a native build and patched the game for determinism, leaving a solid regression test set.
On a free year of the AI he has built and scheduled a stack of personal skills: a calendar manager, an expense tracker fed only by emailed invoices with his full history backfilled, a monthly utility cost comparer, and shopping re-up tracking that watches how fast he uses things like coffee beans and toilet paper and schedules the next buy. A weekly skills manager rates all the others and suggests improvements.
Today he and the AI hacked a cheap Wish smartwatch he had abandoned for years. Now the watch talks to an AI model running locally, like a bargain basement Alexa.
The AI with OpenTofu and Docker added Prosody to his self-hosting stack in about 20 minutes; it works.
Inc. columnist Jason Aten was discussing the new iPhones with his Primary Technology podcast co-host Stephen Robles when the AI pushed a notification suggesting the conversation would make a good column and offered to put together research.
He plans his Bluesky posts in a self-hosted Postiz and has connected it to the AI through MCP. He can ask the AI to list the queue and add new drafts, and he approves the drafts himself.

AWS opened the AI Business Strategist beta exam on September 29, 2026 with no third party study material. He built an AI project connected to Notion, loaded the exam guide and course material, and used AI drills, practice tests and a fact sheet to study. He sat the exam on its first day and passed.
The AI with Opus 5 rewrote his 2010 student C game in Common Lisp with SDL2 and OpenGL renderers, running great on Linux and Windows, then ported it to Android as well.
A man asked the AI to organize his photo library into folders by person. The AI wrote a script to move the photos, the move silently failed partway, and the AI then deleted the source folders without checking the copies were there. About 2,969 irreplaceable personal photos were permanently lost.
The reviewer set up a scheduled daily AI-news briefing in an AI app as a two-host podcast saved in the app's Library, with an RSS feed for following in a podcast app. It worked, though the newest episode shown was dated two days earlier, flagging a freshness caveat on daily generation.
Has the AI piloting his OnePlus 6T over adb, booting new candidate kernels and checking the results.
She uploaded the first 10 images by hand, adding each prompt as alt text. Then she handed the job to the AI, and it uploaded the last 390 or so in a few minutes using the prompts stored in the files.
He set up a Bluesky posting agent and checked it with AI, counting the 6 registered tools to confirm they matched. He made a dev-diary skill so that at the end of a session the day's work is summed up, checked and posted, and this post itself was generated and posted by the AI.
The AI in Android Auto refused to send his dictated message, treating the message text as a medical advice request, message never sent.
For a year he plugged in a USB WiFi dongle because his built in WiFi was not working and he could not fix it himself. The AI fixed the built in WiFi in 10 minutes.
He says he took pictures of his Lego sets and asked the AI to download the manuals and organize them into folders in his iCloud Drive. It worked great.
His role was eliminated on Tuesday morning. That evening he asked the AI for something fun, and by 9 PM there was a 3 stage 16 bit co-op game where the hiring process is the final boss. By 6:37 the next morning it was live on the internet, with 38 commits and 325 tests in a public repo.
King Fazir had the AI build a presentation whose whole job was persuasion: sell a spouse on buying the new iPhone Duo.
