The writer asked his dot for help with his new broadband provider. The dot did deep-dive troubleshooting, contacting the provider's support itself, and figured out a login issue he says he could not get around on his own.
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.
Built his own personal-life organizer with AI in a few weekends; it syncs WhatsApp, Telegram, Gmail and calendars locally, indexes them, and runs scheduled scans, daily briefings and reminders with plugins.
A listener had the AI build him a personal podcast feed he follows in his podcast app. Each day it looks for one episode he would actually enjoy, based on his taste and recent talks, and skips the day if nothing is good enough. It downloads the pick, writes out the words locally, finds the sponsor blocks and cuts them out, checks the joins, and adds the episode to his private feed with a note on why it was picked.
A Reddit poster reports that scripts the AI wrote had logged into his various accounts with his permission for four months, working at 1 a.m. and flatly refusing by 11 a.m. the same day. Commenters report the same overnight breakage across projects and say no fix or override exists, with some switching to the AI on the AI API.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A musician in a home studio asked the AI to search his Instagram followers and follows for musicians active in the past year, select two songs per musician, and compile them into a YouTube playlist. The agent succeeded, creating a 6+ hour 'Community Listening' playlist — music mostly new to him from his own network.
Creator Matthew Berman describes giving an AI access to his local machine on a standing weekly job: it scans every file, finds deletion candidates totalling about 380GB, and sorts them into low, medium and high risk. The bot operates under one hard rule — it may categorize but must never delete anything itself.
He spent about a tenth of his AI 6.1 SOL use having it sort all his chat threads into a few main projects and clean out the empty ones. It used the Chrome browser and finished the job with no mistakes.
