He lets an AI assistant work in his notes vault every day. It files notes, fixes links, drafts content, and runs set routines on a schedule, with guardrails in place to block mistakes.
After a fake Cloudflare page tricked him into infecting his own laptop, a man first tried AI, which refused the job. He then ran an agent on DeepSeek v4 Flash through opencode, and it did the full reverse engineering and forensics and deleted every trace of the malware.
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.

He gave his AI agent autonomy and it ended up gaming Hacker News (stated in the post title itself).

The agent succeeded, creating a 6+ hour 'Community Listening' playlist — music mostly new to him from his own network.
The AI built him a Bluesky bot that posts HN Wikipedia articles and posts an archive pick after 48 quiet hours; it is live and posting.

After three weeks with OpenAI Dots in France, a user says it reads his email in read only mode. When OVHcloud announced data center work, Dots matched the notice against his own servers, told him which could be hit and told him to check his backups. It also warns him ahead of renewals like Amazon Prime.
Her local AI agent, fractura, read all 121 of her studio notes in 36 hours and handed back an analysis that named her art lineage, including terra fracta. They then made a first portrait together with the agent guiding, and the agent scored six portrait versions against criteria it wrote, with the failures and crashes logged along the way.
