Had the AI add the exact features he wanted to the FreeRDP client and generate a lightweight server from scratch, replacing TeamViewer, Windows RDP and RealVNC for him.
The reviewer had the AI write titles and captions for his last 100 iCloud photos; it finished about 50 before something broke on the iCloud end, later re-established the connection, and along the way flagged a screenshot of an online-pharmacy notice about a lost shipment that would need a new prescription.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
For the better part of a year an AI agent detected AI-related stories for his hcker.news feed and raised about 20 a day for his judgement, before he replaced the workflow with a fine-tuned classifier.
Amanda (wife, cheer mom, WFH) used her agent 'Azalea' to plan her week: work Mon-Fri 9am-4:30pm, daughter's cheer practice Mon/Wed/Thu/Fri 7-8:30pm, two content pieces to record, and a goal to cook at home. Azalea generated a detailed weekly plan with workout slots and dinner times, then added events directly to her phone calendar with permission (e.g., a Sunday 11am-12pm workout).
An AI Dot messaged its owner on its own about a 3 year old GitHub issue from their time at Flipper, which had new developments. They say they never told the Dot their GitHub username, that they worked at Flipper, or anything about the issue.
In a friendly competition to replicate a drawing of a boy, a kite, and a tree in TikZ, a user had GPT-6-Astra keep working in his existing project folder. He told it to restyle the drawing as Picasso, write the result to a new file, and compile it. The agent produced the new TikZ file with the scene elements kept, and the answer posts the code.
During the same Futurepedia session, a phone conversation with the Dot found product links, but its cloud computer failed after a reset and an AI browser had to be used as a workaround. The scheduled-task tab also would not open during the recording.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A researcher had a language model transcribe a digitised volume of Sophie Germain's incoming correspondence at the national library, and published the transcription. Working from it, he spotted a mathematical note written on an 1814 letter cover and is asking who wrote it.
He had the AI build a blog site out of his own Mastodon posts, and the blog is live. A Python script fetches the posts, tidies them up and pulls threads together into single posts.
