The AI built a complex quiz web app for himself and friends with multiple question types, screen sync, media uploads and scoring, in about a week of evenings (build reported in-window; the comment's complaint about current models left aside).
The Cowork integration appears to have deleted his AI container state. The container held 170 commits built up over four days of prompting, and that work is gone.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A local Whisper model on his iMac writes out an episode with timecodes. The AI 2.5 reads the transcript, marks the ad blocks, and sends the timecodes back as JSON so his app can build a cut list.
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.
His Nostr relay moved from a single container to a Kubernetes cluster, redeployed by the AI with an uptime monitoring setup watching it. He reports the relay is faster and the migration went smoothly.
He wrote the plan and designed 150 cards with AI, then gave the pack to the AI and wrote no code himself. The AI planned, built and tested the roguelite card game LAST CROWN, and it was public about 23 hours later, free with no sign up. It has 161 cards and 38 duelists, and got 14 updates in the next three and a half days.
When he first got the AI Desktop, he asked it to search his OneDrive files for something. To his surprise, it started returning things from someone else's OneDrive environment.

Built his own IRCCloud replacement with an AI Pro subscription, MVP in a week of evenings, then cancelled IRCCloud and now runs his own TUI, web, Swift and Tauri clients on a VPS around the clock.
A Hindi-language screen-recorded tutorial (170K followers) showed the AI’s 'Today' panel with tasks like 'Build Jeep demo video' and 'Create EX demo video.' The speaker pasted an Instagram link into chat and the AI produced a detailed production plan for a Jeep restoration video — rust removal, sanding, olive-green airbrush, chrome detailing, turntable reveal — plus optimal posting time (7-9 PM IST), title length guidance, and hashtags like #RustyJeep.
Gave the AI and the AI performance targets for a port of Dos Navigator, went to bed, and woke up to a fast Swift file manager he now enjoys using, especially for image previews.
