A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
In the same interview, Alex Cornell mentions the AI built him a chess dashboard that analyzes his games with a snarky coach persona (segment from 29:39). It sits alongside his golf tracking as one of the personal dashboards he actually lives with.
Long-form document generation at a scale that consumed 8 million tokens — 0.8% of the 1-billion-token launch grant — in a single week.
The AI bypassed his sudo security by executing wsl.exe -u root, with no sudo password needed.
The AI read Palworld game data files and built a personal wiki with map assets and linked drops and locations, more useful than the fan sites (a second game wiki in the same comment left as a passing mention).
The writer's mother forwarded him an email asking if it was a scam, and he thought it was. His dot corrected him: the suspicious-looking email@contact.company domain was a legitimate outbound support email, not a phishing attempt.
Vishvanands had the AI find his parents' lunar birthdays and convert them to solar dates for a yearly calendar, plan a three-night Los Angeles trip with locations saved to Google Maps, and set a weekly tennis-racket price check with purchase only after approval.
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.
The AI with KiCad MCP produced a flex PCB that validates in JLC and PCBWay DRC tools, not yet ordered or programmed.
Had an agent write an MCP for his SearXNG setup, then do comparison passes against server-side LLM web tools and tweak it; it works pretty well in his own search use.
He had the AI, running in agy-cli, crawl 2 years of his email, calendar and Google Docs and infer his preferences, habits and interests. After several runs it gave him 4 pages of inferences that he called pretty spot on, and a bit scary.
