Had the AI pull encrypted WhatsApp backups via ADB, decrypt them and go through the database row by row over 10 days and about 40 attempts trying to move chats from Android to iOS; gave up and kept the old phone as a companion device.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
My smart ring sends voice notes to the AI, and the AI sorts my day
A man speaks voice notes into a smart ring during the day, and the AI sorts each note and sends it to the right place: memos and to-dos go to kintone, and answers come back on Slack and are read aloud. Every morning at 6 it sends him a summary of the day before, with the weather, the town garbage day, and what to take with him.

The AI built the HTML editor I could not find anywhere
He needed a free HTML editor to paste in HTML code from the AI, but the ones he found were poor. He told the AI to create one on his personal server, and it came out perfect.
He used AI on NASA data and found a planet candidate nobody had reported
Going through data from NASA's TESS telescope with AI, a user found a star about 116 light years away that dims by 0.05 percent every 3.18 days for about two hours, the same dip in 2018, 2020 and 2025 data. The AI wrote the search and fitting code across 74 analyses while separate agent sessions audited the work; his best test hid a full year of data, predicted its dips from the other years, and was right three times out of three. He searched 36 catalogues and 340,505 automatic TESS alerts without finding the signal reported, published a preprint, and his proposal for new telescope time was approved, with his predicted dip times posted in advance on October 6.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
