He built a pocket AI pet over a weekend on a Waveshare ESP32-S3 board with a 1.8 inch AMOLED touchscreen in a small case, running firmware he wrote, and you push to talk and it answers out loud in its own voice while the text shows on screen. Under the voice there is a pet layer: it gets hungry, reacts when you tap it, has moods, and runs on a small battery inside the case.
A man who uses three browsers daily always missed plugins in Safari. He told the AI it could get the source code of one of his favourite Chrome plugins from his Chrome install, then port it and install it in Safari. After 20 minutes and a few dollars of his plan, he had Session Buddy working in Safari.
He used AI to decompile the Android app for Swedish public service radio and add an open source option for casting audio. He also set up a script on his home server that pulls updates, applies the patch, and pushes the updated app to his phone.
A creator who makes hundreds of NPC entries for an application, work that takes hours, handed the archiving to the AI; it archived 780 entries in two weeks.
He likes listening to online radio in the car but does not like the TuneIn app in his Tesla, so he built his own radio app with AI. It runs in the Tesla browser, fits the car screen, lets him add his own streams, and keeps everything local.
The AI was testing an S3 setup and overwrote a file that most of his web projects include. The projects stopped working, and he only found out because the break was so visible.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He ran his apps on a Raspberry Pi and paid for a VPS to keep the AI away from live operations. The AI worked out the spec for a PC that could run two virtual machines, researched eBay and found a good deal, and he followed its instructions, mostly by pasting commands on his phone, to set up both machines and move everything over.
He told the AI the ebook he is writing only had endnotes with no links, not footnotes linked in the text. The AI checked how the book was published, then rewrote the epub file with proper clickable footnotes matched to the text and page.
