A user in the AI Facebook group posted on Oct 18 that the AI could not save files directly to his computer the way the AI could, so rather than buy a subscription he built his own bridge in about six hours. The AI can now write straight to his local files, compatible with his existing agent stacks, and he published the tool open-source on GitHub.
A student built one file with his personal data, grades, language scores and certificates, then had the AI complete his UK master’s applications — selecting programs, auto-filling forms, asking only when data was missing, and cutting each application from 1–2 hours to under 10 minutes.
Sends Nix packaging jobs to an agent and gets a working package, or 20 dependency packages, in about 20 minutes; the AI also fixed his monitor wake-after-sleep config in minutes.
He directs academic tech at a university. Every semester some instructors never set up their courses, so students walk into empty course pages. A day after signing up, he had the AI build a CSV of upcoming courses with no content, or where the instructor has never entered the course. The list also told him one course was already open to students when courses should not be open yet, so he closed it.
Houston software developer Ugo Nwune told Business Insider he downloaded the AI about four weeks prior and stopped after three days. He had granted only Facebook, Threads, and Instagram access.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He has done a couple of circuit boards using AI and Fable. Each one came back from manufacture working first time, which he says beats his own success rate doing boards by hand.
Shawna, a busy mom of three (13K), asked her agent 'Miss the AI' for easy dinner ideas for the week. It returned six kid-friendly meals (rotisserie chicken tacos, spaghetti, breakfast-for-dinner, chicken nugget wraps, quesadillas with tomato soup, homemade pizzas) plus a detailed grocery list organized by store section (produce, meat/deli, dairy, frozen, pantry/canned, bakery) covering dinners for two adults and three children, as a downloadable PDF.
