He gave GPT a security audit skill that checks his machine against newly published vulnerabilities, patches what it can, and warns him about the rest. He runs it whenever new CVEs land, and says the patches need care because a fix can cause as much trouble as the flaw.
A developer asked the AI to batch-generate images through fal.ai in budgeted chunks with checks between runs. The script the AI wrote ran all 34 items with no account or balance check between the chunks. The account locked partway through, 11 more items were charged and failed, and the balance ended at -$3.68.

Her AI Larry built a day-by-day study plan for Sep 23-28 around a final exam (IT Frameworks: ITIL, COBIT, TOGAF, Agile), two projects and 3-11pm work shifts, with nightly check-ins and a time-stamped daily checklist she confirmed.
A man who cannot code beyond R had the AI build a working home for the complicated NFL pool he and a friend have run on Excel for more than 15 years. He says the result felt like magic to him.
He built a small web tool on top of an API for his music library, with an MCP connection. He can ask the AI to check for missing artwork, sort out the genres, or fix the track numbers.
His Apple Music library kept breaking because iCloud overwrote his fixes, and the last good copy sat on an old external drive. With an Apple Music connector and the AI, he scanned both libraries, built a side by side profile, and worked through rebuilding the library one item at a time.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A man generates all his passwords with his own little tool, which hashes the site name, username and a version number with his passphrase. He had the AI port the tool to iOS, and the setup recently saved him when his laptop died: he could rebuild every important password from memory with a fresh copy of the config.
He told the AI which folder held his video and its subtitles, and the AI synced the subtitles for him. He says that small fix was the most urgent thing in his day.
