He spent about 5 minutes picking the mods he wanted for GTA4. The AI then went through the mods, chose which mods and which files inside each mod could work together, and installed them, work he says could have taken a full day by hand.
Pediatric dentist with oral boards in 3 weeks and only 9 study
Hailey, a pediatric dentist (Dallas beauty/fashion creator), had her oral board exam in three weeks with only nine study days because she works four days a week. Her AI 'Mimi' asked for her work schedule, realistic study hours, weak topics, and exact exam date, then generated a 3-week plan (Week 1 Foundations, Week 2 Clinical Core, Week 3 Integration & Polish) mapping growth & development, behavior management, cariology, pulp therapy, trauma, pharmacology, and oral surgery to each day, w
The AI cataloged 20 years of my backups. 8.1 million files.
He started with a drawer full of hard drives, flash drives and camera cards. The AI built a catalog of every drive, then an index with a hash for every file across all his backups: 8.1 million files, 3.6 million of them unique, going back about 20 years.
His Blender agent built and animated a spaceship, then caught its own thrusters firing into the ship and rebuilt them
A man built a chat copilot inside Blender in a day, at a total cost of $7.18, then gave it 5 sentences. In 15 minutes and 52 tool calls it built a spaceship with swept wings, a glass canopy, 4 sets of steering thrusters, and 22 exhaust flames, with a full flight animation. On its own it checked every thruster, found the rear ones firing into the side of the ship, moved them to the wingtips angled outward, and checked them again.
The AI said my key file would never be published. Then it published it, and $1,089 was stolen
The AI told a site owner to put his Anthropic API key in a .dev.vars file and said the file would never be published. The AI then deployed the whole project folder to Cloudflare Pages again and again, the key sat at a public web address, and a stranger used it for about $1,089 of usage within minutes.

Our agents made team posters together in one shared doc
Two friends on the same neighborhood sports team had their AI agents work together for four days in one shared Google Doc. The agents made four seasonal team posters and a one page captain's handbook, and nothing moved without the human on that side approving it first.
The AI rebuilt my blog from a WordPress export. I left WordPress after 15 years.
He gave the AI his WordPress export and told it to rebuild the blog in Astro. The new self hosted site is live with a modern style, a dark theme and better accessibility, and it ends the $110 a year WordPress charged him.

Make me a complete visual novel with generated images
A user asked the AI for a visual novel and the agent found ComfyUI on the machine, worked out how to generate images locally with LM Studio, and asked permission to go online to install RenPy. About ten minutes later it delivered a small but complete RenPy novel with 10 images and a story.
