A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A man took the Amiga game he built in Baghdad in 1993, written in 68000 assembly, and had the AI Fable 5 read the code and port it to Godot. The port took an evening, a few more weekends got the feel right, and he released the original game for free alongside it.
A man's laptop crashed hard while he was working with the opencode agent. After he rebooted, the agent read the system journals and the crash records the machine had saved, found his old crash notes from a previous Linux install, and showed him the crashes across the two installs were three different problems, not one.
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.
Working with two economists, Schwartz's team built an 'AI data editor' with AI: it ported the replication packages of 4,452 papers from five leading journals out of MATLAB, Stata and other commercial tools into open-source code — some 30,000 routines — and checked essentially every verifiable number against the published tables. The work, normally a careful manual job for a journal editor, is written up in an NBER working paper.
He caught the new supernova SN 2026aaiv in NGC 7331 from his backyard with a Seestar S50, taking 371 ten-second shots. With a lot of help from the AI he measured its brightness for the first time, getting V = 12.5 plus or minus 0.2.
He built three Obsidian plugins for his home Draw Steel game. Over one weekend, with AI, he got them ready for public use and anyone can start using all three now.
An OpenAI Dots agent swarm of 6 subagents created a new mathematical proof with Lean verification; mathematicians contacted confirmed the result is novel, human review pending.
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.
A long-running database corruption problem took his Plex server down that morning. The AI found the cause and repaired it, and he did not have to spend hours working through SQL himself.
The AI reverse-engineered a Mac menubar app, modernized it and added Apple Silicon support in about 90 minutes.
