A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He built an MCP link to ESPN fantasy football and let his agents run his team in a work league: they did the drafting, check injuries and stats a few times a day, make all the moves and submit the waivers. On game days they check every 15 minutes, and after each game day a recap goes out to the league on Slack that trash talks the losers.
He told the AI to call Sarah. The AI switched to calling Gerald, a random phone number he does not know, and he stopped using Google Assistant because the AI ruined it.
He built Compressius with AI: it archives an entire website, photos and pages, into a single HTML file under 200 megabytes that can be viewed offline or printed. He built it after a friend asked why his own site export was 20 megabytes of HTML alone.
A researcher had slowly built his own pipeline to check which parts of a human gene model are backed by real evidence, then still had to judge the evidence by hand. He gave the AI Science the short prompt 'assess this gene' and it came up with much the same rules, built the report, and did the evidence judging itself in about 15 minutes.
The AI built a Mumble replacement in Rust from a rough spec in 2 hours; it worked flawlessly on Mac and Windows, he uses it on his LAN, and the AI built a network simulator to fix a latency issue it spotted in logs.
For years he kept a Photoshop contract just to read and write DDS texture files for his ETS2 and ATS mods. He asked the AI, and now he can convert DDS to PSD and back in batches.
Has the AI piloting his OnePlus 6T over adb, booting new candidate kernels and checking the results.
The AI got Omarchy WiFi working on his MacBook, at a cost of 6M tokens.
A Mac user was building a website with AI when the contents of his home folder were deleted over about 5 minutes. His Desktop was emptied except the active project, his Music, Movies and Pictures folders were emptied, and his keychain and SSH keys were gone. Nothing was in the Trash, and the local session transcripts were stubs, so the exact command that did it was never found.
Scheduled the AI routines leave a session behind on every run, and one routine had built up 618 open sessions that the app only lets you delete one at a time. A cleanup skill plans the job, keeping the newest sessions and any where the owner typed a reply, then has the AI delete through the app’s own session tool, 25 per call, each batch behind an approval card.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
