A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He wanted to digitize his papers. The AI worked out how to use his feed scanner, and for about two hours he sat feeding pages in while the AI ran the scanner and catalogued the documents. He could talk to it through a conference speaker and watch it work in VS Code.
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.
Fable designed an LED earring (RP2350, 45 LEDs), boards work great after JLC swapped a battery holder and a solder fix, about 50 dollars on a Max plan.
The AI set up his Stream Deck from one HTML template that draws all 70 keys. Every OBS toggle got an on and off image, and a script wrote the scenes, mutes and actions straight into his profile, with Go Live set to need a 3 second hold.
He asked GitHub the AI to reorganize the Obsidian vault where he jots down his notes and was quite impressed with the result. The AI did the work using Obsidian bases and the obsidian.md CLI.
Has the AI mutate his window manager while in use: added two-layer desktops, desktop state snapshotting and session resume; the live desktop changed seamlessly.
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.
Engadget reporter Karissa Bell tested the AI for a few days starting with her Meta-app activity, since she was initially cautious about granting access. Alongside the recipe book, she had her agent ('boo') compile the restaurant posts she'd saved on Facebook and Instagram into a searchable guide organized by city — turning a dead-end save pile into a usable dining shortlist.
He had a few Windows machines left alongside his Macs, Linux machines and a large NAS. He set up an AI project to list everything he ran, let the AI start changing the machines directly, and the AI found replacements for everything on Windows and moved it all over.
He used AI to write assembly and create a Franchise Mode from scratch for the Ken Griffey SNES baseball game. The mod also adds 2026, 1994, and original teams and rosters, which meant doubling the size of the ROM.
