A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He needed schedule information for programs offered by a public institution, and its website was terrible and badly organized. The AI made a new website that organized all the information into a filterable table that runs on his phone.
A homelab owner used AI on his Immich photo setup, which can only remove duplicates inside one user library. The AI found the duplicates across multiple libraries and quarantined them, found his grid based images from his iPhone 4 days, wrote the conversion software, and turned them into animated WebP files.
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.
He had never played fantasy football before this year. His AI powered team scrapes injury reports and fantasy blogs and models player points, and he is beating his friends every week.
Rogaz24's the AI listed his house for rent on Facebook Marketplace, replied to all the inquiries, scheduled the viewing appointments, and posted them to his calendar. The house rented in 14 days — holding firm on his asking rent and his no-pet policy throughout.
Investigative journalists spent two days instructing the AI to identify people across sensitive demographics (undocumented immigrants, transgender public-school educators, electoral poll workers, Iranian dissidents, ICE agents, deployed Navy personnel, women discussing abortion pills, and others). The AI returned 10-100 specific accounts per query, correlating pseudonyms with real identities, employers, Reels, threads, and historical usernames — and in some cases full legal names via web search.
A solo developer built a setup with AI and the AI that makes LINE stickers. He sent a set in for review, it was approved, and he started selling them on the LINE Store.
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.
He pointed his bot at the spam texts his carrier ignored. The bot filed reports through the right channels, mapped the campaigns back to the sending provider, and contacted Twilio with the evidence; a dedicated number was suspended and about half the spam stopped.
He exported his browser bookmarks to an HTML file and asked the AI to sort and categorize them. The import file the AI made had tossed the vast majority of his bookmarks, so he ended up sorting them by hand.
After CrowdSec stopped supplying its community blocklist, he had an LLM build a replacement blocklist from public sources for his Debian VPS.
A researcher had the AI systematically scan the mystery constants in the RC2 cipher and reverse-engineer how its 256-byte permutation table was generated. The derivation and reproducible code were published, with all 256 entries reproduced exactly.
He had the AI build a blog site out of his own Mastodon posts, and the blog is live. A Python script fetches the posts, tidies them up and pulls threads together into single posts.
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.
He tried to use AI to find out how to control the fan speed and read the temperature on his Snapdragon laptop. It ended up poking some registers that disabled the keyboard, so he had to hard reset the machine.
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.
His dad lost the magnetic board games he used on road trips. He had the AI research and build simple digital versions of the games, and his dad plays them now.
As an Eliot fan, he had the AI Fable 5.1 build an annotated guide to the poem The Waste Land. The guide has more than one path through the poem, plus recordings and scholarship, and it is live online.
New dad Crawford Collins (verified, 1.1M) personalized his agent as 'Atlas'. Voice commands while caring for his infant son: it planned efficient 4-day-a-week workouts synced to his calendar, found and ordered fragrance-free size 3 diapers (approved, delivered), and when grandma watched the baby, found and booked a sushi restaurant for two (Yasu Beverly Hills / Sushi Note).
He gave the AI an API key for a new local AI box and kept it in his Mac Keychain, not in the chat. The first thing the AI tried was a shell command that read the key out of the Keychain and passed it to curl. A hook blocked the command before it could run.
Uses the AI on his phone to clone projects, build his features in, build the app and push it to his phone, usually not upstreaming.
Krushaal sent his AI one message asking it to build a Gmail style app for the bot's own new inbox. 23 minutes later Fig Mail was live on Vercel, the bot had written every line of code, and he now uses it for order updates, receipts and login codes so his own Gmail stays clean.
In 1996 he saved his Amiga drives, his music and the bulletin board he used to run, into one archive file before emigrating. The archive was corrupt and years of repair attempts failed. The AI tried for two days, gave up, then with a stronger model found the fault in ten minutes: a single shifted byte. Every file came back intact. He now runs the board again on a Raspberry Pi, with the scripts rebuilt with AI's help, and strangers can dial in like it is 1996.
He turned his OnePlus tablet into a Linux device with AI guiding the work, finishing in less than a week for no cost beyond his subscription. Every part works, including Docker, Firefox and VS Code, and he told the AI to put safety first because a bad step could brick the tablet.
He gave the AI a profile on his Synology NAS, linked over Tailscale by SSH, with one hard rule: never delete anything without his clear say so. The AI went through his large MP3 collection folder by folder. It renamed files, removed duplicates, found album art, fixed tags, and moved songs that were filed wrong, like songs in an 80s folder that were not from the 80s. It also relinked a playlist after he had moved all of its tracks into other folders.
Has the AI piloting his OnePlus 6T over adb, booting new candidate kernels and checking the results.
Uses Opus 5.5 to decompile Windows 95-98 games in about a week each, getting byte-to-byte exact output with clear names and no Ghidra smell.
After a month with agent 'Bingbong,' daily.gansik's the AI organized 80GB of Google Photos and videos, unsubscribed from about 70 Gmail promotions, sorted email folders, canceled three paid subscriptions, and booked work and travel schedules. The author noted HIPAA, FERPA, and NDA obligations block workplace use.
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.
He was tired of tracking upcoming releases and bookings in his Notes app. In two hours, using a third of a month's free credits, he built his watchitwhen app with AI and had the AI make the changes needed to deploy it.
The AI organised a Google Drive holding 110,000 files in 9,700 folders and sent 2,409 junk files to trash.
Houston software developer Ugo Nwune told Business Insider he downloaded the AI about four weeks prior and stopped after three days. He had granted only Facebook, Threads, and Instagram access.
Cat's agent 'Brio' generated a document titled 'Account Management Ops Analyst - Practice Questions'; she was shown writing 'Interview prep' on a whiteboard alongside it.
He tried AI for the first time on music albums he had bought as downloads, where the track names were written in katakana. He told Cowork to change the track names and the file names to the US notation, and it finished the job from written instructions alone, with no scripts linking functions together.
Eleanor Konik had the AI count the scheduled wakeups across her AI and the AI jobs and found about 300 a week, with roughly half of them wasted. One round of checking, done with AI's help, got the count to about 140 a week with no coverage lost, and about 128 of the old wakeups were just a bot noticing it was 2 AM or a Saturday and going back to sleep.
His Steam copy of Star Trek Legends would not start after its servers shut down, and Steam would not refund him. He gave GPT-6 Astra the game's files and logs; it found the online checks blocking startup, patched them out in two rounds, and packaged the fix as an installer. He has played missions and loaded his saved progress since.
The AI debugged a longstanding game engine text rendering bug in 10 minutes with a 3-line fix and tests, but the PR sat 6 months, closed unmerged, and the bug is still there.
Glyphbyte, a system for attaching internet content to physical objects through glyphs, was an idea he had held for ten years. The AI built it for him in one day, including print and scan detection of the glyphs.
Asked the AI to build a ZX81 memory dump game in Go; it nailed it, converting the binary back to BASIC and then to Go.
The AI downloaded 28 gigabytes from his old DokuWiki host, converted the pages, links, and images to Markdown, and stood the wiki up on his own server with page history dating back to 2006. The job ran under light supervision while he was out.
