A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He needed an app on his QNAP NAS that only existed as open source Linux code, with no NAS package. He gave the AI the model, the AI searched the web and gave him a downloadable package in about ten and a half minutes, and he installed it and it works.
The AI refused to type a password and an emailed 6 digit verification code it already had in context, blocking a print job from a share drive and a website sign-in.
Eric Siu (verified, 120K followers) demonstrated the AI’s Instagram integration reading his bookmarks and follow graph, then generating batches of tailored video outlines — '60-Second Playbook,' 'Story Cut,' 'Debate Cut' — each with hooks, TL;DR lines, talking points, editor notes, and links to past successful reels. He said it replaced a full-time person's scripting-research role.
The AI opened a browser, created an account on the ticket site, picked his concert ticket, and paused for his approval in the app before paying. The confirmation email arrived and the AI added the concert to his calendar.
The AI reverse engineered the Bowers and Wilkins app so he can queue music over WiFi from his laptop instead of his phone, done in a couple of hours.
Fable reverse engineered the Satisfactory blueprint file format and wrote a reader, a graph auditing tool, and a website; work that would have taken a couple of weeks by hand.
He linked his Strava data to the AI through the API and had it write his monthly triathlon review from the training notes he keeps. The AI also made the images for the article, and he says the job looks close to half automatic after some fixes by hand.
The AI plus Jev built a browser extension in about 10 minutes that ranks HN comments for sloppiness, which he uses to view HN.
He runs a Funkwhale music server on a virtual machine. Using his own notes, the official docs and the AI, he moved it from version 1.4 to 2.0.12, said it went very smoothly, and wrote up how he did it.
Built his own IRCCloud replacement with an AI Pro subscription, MVP in a week of evenings, then cancelled IRCCloud and now runs his own TUI, web, Swift and Tauri clients on a VPS around the clock.
