A home-lab owner reported on X (via WhatAgentsCanDo, Oct 19) that, still in bed, he sent the AI a link to a post containing a setup recipe for a new DeepSeek model (DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017, EXL3) across two NVIDIA DGX Spark machines and asked it to do the setup. The AI was not installed on the Sparks, but they shared a network with its computer, and everything was ready to test by the time he got up; he says he does not know exactly how the bot reached the machines.
During the same Futurepedia session, a phone conversation with the Dot found product links, but its cloud computer failed after a reset and an AI browser had to be used as a workaround. The scheduled-task tab also would not open during the recording.

Engadget reporter Karissa Bell tested the AI for a few days starting with her Meta-app activity, since she was initially cautious about granting access.

He finished setting up Obsidian so new notes file themselves into the day's folder and link into daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly notes. The templates behind it were made by the AI, and he says it would have been impossible without it.
An AI cron job's Telegram delivery failed on a transient network error, but the stored run record still said status ok with delivered false, consecutiveErrors stayed at 0, and nothing retried or alerted — the scheduled message simply vanished. The failure was only visible by digging into the run diagnostics; anyone watching the chat or the job's status saw a healthy run.

He is a photographer who found typing alt text for every photo slow going. He built a small agent on his own n8n server: he sends a photo through an Apple shortcut, the agent reads the picture with a local Qwen model, adds the camera data, and saves the finished alt text in an Obsidian note, ten photos at a time.
Cornell's third live demo on How I AI: The AI converted his 20-year-old blog into a daily podcast, an archive-repurposing use case for a long-running content creator.
