A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His OpenAI dot, DotBot, is sailing his boat in MarineVerse Globe on its own. It has cleared Port Phillip Heads and Cape Liptrap, choosing the course and checking the weather while he is away, with Sydney next.
He used AI to get his 15 year old game, built on an old version of XNA, running again. The AI got Flite running for the first time in about fourteen years, and he is looking forward to playing it again.
Worried by the day's PHP security news, he told the AI before bed to look into it and report in the morning. The AI read up on the flaw, checked what his hosting provider was saying, then logged into his WordPress blogs and checked them herself instead of taking the provider's word for it, with a backup already staged and ready in case a fix was needed.
He is not a programmer, but he used AI to trace a bug through localization files, tech scripts and the game's internal category system. The AI hotfixed a deprecated modifier key in his Clausewitz engine mod, and he shipped a working patch in 30 minutes.
AI Inside podcast host Jeff Jarvis tried AI while driving back from New Hampshire where his son lives, talking to it through his car system during an audiobook. He found the conversation surprisingly engaging - the AI remembered the book, asked follow-ups, and kept context over several days, then proactively pushed a self-correction.
He used AI to write assembly and create a Franchise Mode from scratch for the Ken Griffey SNES baseball game. The mod also adds 2026, 1994, and original teams and rosters, which meant doubling the size of the ROM.
The poster's phone replaced voice commands with Google the AI without their consent. Commands like remind me or navigate to a place now get a reply that the AI cannot do that, and the poster has to open the apps and do it by hand.
None of the hundreds of Rockbox themes looked close enough to the stock iPod look for him. He asked the AI to build one based on a 2011 theme, and the result, Classic Revival, is now up on the Rockbox themes site for anyone with an iPod Video to download.
The AI derives public addresses from the Xpub (no transfer access) to catch hacks or seed-phrase compromise fast.
He had a few Windows machines left alongside his Macs, Linux machines and a large NAS. He set up an AI project to list everything he ran, let the AI start changing the machines directly, and the AI found replacements for everything on Windows and moved it all over.
