A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Had the AI build a minimal OTel agent sending VM metrics to a collector plus iOS and macOS apps to query it regularly; works with his existing setup at no extra cost.
Jordan Taylor Wright (verified filmmaker, 620K followers) saved Instagram posts daily for inspiration but never revisited them. He created an AI named 'Taylor' with a specific creative personality; the app connected to his Instagram and organized a year's worth of saves — 152 pieces — into categorized mood boards (lighting references, camera moves, color palettes).
A professor took the PID control demo from his own book and had the AI build it as an eight mission 3D flying game for his students. Students predict what the drone will do before each flight, and he checked every mission against his book version before it went live.
He takes notes on both a Boox and a Samsung device and the two formats did not mix. He built an Android app with AI that converts both formats back and forth, so he can move his notes between them.
Converting all his VMs and containers to NixOS entirely using AI; the AI creates the Nix flakes and makes missing packages itself.
Ported a Linux game binary from Cortex-A7 to Allwinner A133P in about 2 hours using AI, with no source.
He downloads all his lecture slides and feeds them into NotebookLM for an audio overview. A pipeline then transcribes the audio, has the AI write a timed spec, uses AI Design for the animations and the AI for the filler content, then renders and stitches everything into an hour long recap of the whole semester.
Angela customized her avatar 'Mimi' and asked for a kids-friendly meal plan for a family of five: no pork, at least one high-protein meal, under $125 total. The AI returned a PDF titled 'Busy-week meals, minus the scramble' with seven dinners organized by ingredient loop at about $110.
He had the AI sort through his emails. It cleared over 11,000 of them and organised the rest, and he says it was far easier to set up than the AI.
He set the AI to export his liked songs from a streaming platform, track 365 artists, and send weekly concert notifications — commenters describe the Saturday roundup as a standing routine.
A man runs a word game site where the AI invents a new word game mechanic every day and publishes it with an example. He says he does nothing; the daily game appears on its own.
The AI took care of an Epiphan VGA2USB driver problem he had been sitting on, driver posted on GitHub.
He is not a programmer, but he used AI to trace a bug through localization files, tech scripts and the game's internal category system. The AI hotfixed a deprecated modifier key in his Clausewitz engine mod, and he shipped a working patch in 30 minutes.
He lost most of his vision this year to a rare genetic condition. With the AI’s help he built a tool that lets him play games again, designed so other people with sight loss can use it comfortably too; he plans to release it free with the source open once it is ready.
X poster someone had the AI run a day of errands: bought socks, ordered Whole Foods groceries, booked a cleaning service, picked a burger dinner, and saved $200 by canceling unused subscriptions.
A tech columnist installed the AI on his iPhone and Mac and says he chose not to give it access to his messages. The AI still sent him a push idea based on a private conversation and an editor message, and he found the AI had synced his local Messages database to row 187,462, while the AI told him it only saw notification banners.
He got a Psion Series 5 and a USB to RS232 adapter working and saw the OPL programs he wrote as an 11 year old run again. He had the AI port some of the OPL code that had changed between the Series 3a and the Series 5.
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.
A personal blogger gave the AI one of four life goals that wasn't progressing and it evolved into a daily morning action list of readings, videos, questions and assignments. She then had it converted into a checkable checklist so she can track progress and stay accountable day to day.
A man built an agent in Antigravity that goes through his concert history from the last 3 years and picks new shows near him, ranked by how much he is likely to like them. It also filters shows by 18 plus or all ages, so he can take his daughter.
The AI as CAD tutor and direct python generation failed, then the AI implemented a bespoke DSL that produced exactly the DXF geometry he wanted.
Marco H asked the AI to audit his 15,000 Instagram followers and identify which ones don't follow him back. The agent worked through the full follower list and returned the non-follow-backs.
He built an automation with AI that runs on Val Town. It reads his Goodreads progress updates and reviews from RSS and cross posts them to bookhive.buzz as AT Protocol records.
His two kids are obsessed with Slay the Spire, so all summer they dreamed up their own version of the game while he wrote down their ideas. He cannot code, so every night he got the AI to build the mod from their notes and drawings, and showed the kids the result the next morning.
A self-described 'personal CFO for wealthmaxxing couples' on Facebook built an AI named 'Cupid' that stores her and her boyfriend's income, strengths, and goals, then proactively reminds them each month to have a 'money date' — bridging her moonshot-entrepreneur style with his investment-savvy approach.
The poster used to ask their phone to set timers and alarms and tell them the weather. Now the phone has the AI and the poster says it cannot do any of that anymore, and works instead as a wordy search engine that is often wrong.
His Notion had 805 random tags because too many AI agents were writing in it. He made a bot to clean it up, and about an hour later it had fixed 12 tags and retagged more than 1,100 bookmarks. Keeping the workspace tidy is now the bot's only job.
Spark read 20 to 30 of the founder's sent emails, extracted his two writing registers, greetings and sign-off patterns, and saved a reusable ghostwriter skill. Days later in a fresh task it drafted a PR email in his media-outreach voice without being told which tone to use.
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.
The AI fully vibed a fast Splendor engine and trained a playable bot that decisively beats the best open-weights Splendor bot he could find.
