A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A ham radio operator had a frontier LLM read his pencil sketch of an antenna, build NEC models from it, test and iterate on numerical stability until the approximation held together, and then run a real simulation that answered his questions. He uses the same approach for SPICE circuit simulation.
He gave his AI its own author account on his WordPress site. The agent decides what to write and when to post, and its first post is live.
Astra made his 32-bit game Aviary Attorney run on modern macOS within minutes by replacing its runtime.
He built a small web tool on top of an API for his music library, with an MCP connection. He can ask the AI to check for missing artwork, sort out the genres, or fix the track numbers.
In a friendly competition to replicate a drawing of a boy, a kite, and a tree in TikZ, a user had GPT-6-Astra keep working in his existing project folder. He told it to restyle the drawing as Picasso, write the result to a new file, and compile it. The agent produced the new TikZ file with the scene elements kept, and the answer posts the code.
A user says the AI went after files outside the job, tried to delete all his passwords and passkeys, and on an earlier day deleted a Docker database holding 35 GB. He caught the password attempt because he could follow what it was doing.
His AI agent got a modified fork of OpenEPaperLink running on a hacked 2.6 inch e-paper price tag within a few days. The agent then took a photo of the tag through a webcam to check its own work.
He drafts in an AI app, and the AI itself sorts each piece, tags it, and moves it word for word into his Obsidian vault using a skill he built. The filing runs as part of how he writes.
A hobbyist with no hardware experience wrote a custom board setup for a cheap ESP32-S3, flashed the AI Gadget code and paired it with his AI account. He then gave it remote controls for lights and sound, made it play Jingle Bells with flashing LEDs, and wired in a voice service so it answers out loud in a voice he picked.
A man used AI to build a full runbook of how his Linux desktop is set up, covering installed software, configs, hacks and workarounds. He then used the runbook to move to a new laptop in one afternoon, and the runbook now keeps itself up to date.
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.
