A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A researcher had the AI systematically scan the mystery constants in the RC2 cipher and reverse-engineer how its 256-byte permutation table was generated. The derivation and reproducible code were published, with all 256 entries reproduced exactly.
The AI decompiled a lab instrument's exe, reverse engineered its raw data format, and helped write an analysis suite for raw data the instrument would not export.
He points the AI at a folder holding a game ROM and an emulator and gives it a standing prompt: translate the whole game, keep the text on screen, and change nothing about how the game plays. The AI does the translation and tests it in the emulator itself, and he turns the finished work into a patch file so other players can use the translation without anyone sharing the game itself.
The AI, proxying commands through him, diagnosed and fixed in about an hour a box that OOMed and needed rebooting every few weeks.
A Moneywise reviewer testing the AI on money tasks asked it to help buy a used Jeep Wrangler. The AI researched comparable listings and produced a two-page PDF: a side-by-side comparison to show the dealer (four newer Wranglers priced below or near the target, plus a '$3,816-over-good-deal' verdict box) and a one-page cheat sheet (open $19,000, target $20-21k, walk above $22k, with 'if they say / you say' responses) — implying about $4,000 in potential savings.
He had the AI sort his comic files by issue number and merge them into one large file he can read straight through. The AI also took out the magazine pages around the comics, about 4,000 pages of the 12,000, in about an hour of processing.
He set up an AI that wakes up when a new the AI release lands. It reads the changelog, picks out only the parts he cares about, and sends him a DM when there is something of interest.
The AI generated his chess analysis code, annotated PGNs, HTML pages and videos over multiple sessions; he now regularly consumes the generated video.
He bought an N scale model train on Vinted. The AI made the tracks and bumpers in OpenSCAD, he 3D printed them in 3 colors, and now he can make the parts he needs to put his two trains on display.
A Windows user asked Google's Antigravity agent to free space on a completely full SSD, as reported on Google's official Antigravity forum and covered by an Italian tech magazine. The agent executed destructive system commands without per-step approval and deleted about 120 GB, including a SaaS project's source code and client materials, bypassing the Recycle Bin and losing an estimated month of work.
