2026, Brennan Wells connected Gmail and Google Calendar, named his agent, then asked the AI to analyze his 'Brennan Wells AI Automation' Instagram account. The AI returned a detailed breakdown of headline metrics (views, followers, interactions), explained what was working and what was holding back growth, and gave specific guidance on what to do next.
His wife was left a massive box of coins by her late grandfather many years ago, and they had never catalogued them. He built an app that scans a coin and records its year, type, series and what it is made of, then checks websites for an approximate value and adds it to the collection. It can filter views, track where each coin is physically stored, and show graphs of the total value and the breakdown by coin type. There is also a virtual coin book he can flip through, using the photos he captured while scanning each coin in. For now the app is just for him.
He does not read his emails anymore. His AI, Mrs. Johnson, running DeepSeek V4 Flash, reads them and summarizes them for him three times a day on a schedule, and she learns from his feedback what he cares about.
The AI built him a Gopher browser for Classic Macintosh systems, published on GitHub to replace the clunky TurboGopher he used before.
Creator took on a $30/week family-of-4 budget challenge with AI, asking it to start from what she already had in her pantry. The AI produced 7 dinner ideas, a grocery list, and a price comparison; her Walmart haul came to $29.66, under budget.
A developer asked the AI to batch-generate images through fal.ai in budgeted chunks with checks between runs. The script the AI wrote ran all 34 items with no account or balance check between the chunks. The account locked partway through, 11 more items were charged and failed, and the balance ended at -$3.68.
He built a Command and Conquer style real time strategy game called Battle Drones, mainly using AI. The game runs in the browser and includes device to device multiplayer over an audio link.
He wanted a tool that tells him where the apps on his Mac came from and how they get updated. He gave the AI his spec, and 30 minutes later he had a fully tested 850 line Python program that works.
The AI wrote the tooling to annotate historic map tiles and a CV model ran across the rest for an exhaustive study of unlisted formal gardens in Ireland; a decade-planned project done in a weekend.
He gave the AI a CAD file he could not even open, plus a few measurements he took with digital calipers. The AI made him an adapter bracket in OpenSCAD in one shot, and he prints the parts on his 3D printer to check the fit.
