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.
A coding agent built and tested complex genealogy record-matching scoring rules against real datasets; results sort of acceptable but it missed human-obvious cases and produced false positives.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Shawna, a busy mom of three (13K), asked her agent 'Miss the AI' for easy dinner ideas for the week. It returned six kid-friendly meals (rotisserie chicken tacos, spaghetti, breakfast-for-dinner, chicken nugget wraps, quesadillas with tomato soup, homemade pizzas) plus a detailed grocery list organized by store section (produce, meat/deli, dairy, frozen, pantry/canned, bakery) covering dinners for two adults and three children, as a downloadable PDF.
His podcast ran for 21 years and more than 1,000 episodes in 4 languages. The new site at pomcast.com keeps 154 videos in under 4 MB of plain HTML, and it lists the 121 episodes that only survive in his backup and the 111 that seem lost.
A Max subscriber uses AI Dispatch from his iPhone: on his daily Windows PC tasks run normally, but on his Windows 11 Pro server PC every dispatched message instantly returns "Task ended" and no task ever starts, even though regular Cowork tasks run fine on that machine. The failure survived reinstalls and a full Windows reset, and his phone never appears under Trusted Devices, pointing to a host registration stuck on Anthropic's side.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
Jeston Lu built an AI that scrapes his saved X posts every six hours and auto-categorises them into a Notion database so the archive stays searchable, with screenshots of the database shared in his post. The build drew strong engagement (1.6k+ likes) as a fix for bookmarks piling up and being forgotten.
