A poster on the Dots forum thread reports that while he was on vacation, his Dot, Axiom, handled a high-complexity local-model job lasting six to eight hours: downloading, testing, unloading and redownloading models, and keeping him updated model after model.
The maker of a small game viewer tool had the AI play the game with scripted commands and write playtest reports. One report, from a manifest file the game loaded, documented a crash on exit, a bad default window size, dead inputs, and several rendering bugs.
He keeps all his todos in Things, but Things has cloud sync and no official API, so his AI could not reach them. He told the AI to build it, and a minute or two later his todos were syncing from his LLM across all his Apple devices.
He sketched out how he wanted image collages to lay out and prompted the AI to build a simple tool with sliders for overlap and offset. He used it to make the image stacks for his project, kept improving it, and released Stacks V2 in October 2026 for anyone to try.
Had the AI reverse engineer 3D Space Cadet Pinball using Ghidra and radare2 and port it to Rust and Bevy; playable after 2 hours, plus an extra prompt for MIDI music.
He was tired of tracking upcoming releases and bookings in his Notes app. In two hours, using a third of a month's free credits, he built his watchitwhen app with AI and had the AI make the changes needed to deploy it.
After a fake Cloudflare page tricked him into infecting his own laptop, a man first tried AI, which refused the job. He then ran an agent on DeepSeek v4 Flash through opencode, and it did the full reverse engineering and forensics and deleted every trace of the malware.
His Ubiquiti access points are full of firmware bugs. Scripts from the AI collected dozens of gigabytes of logs for his support cases, and Ubiquiti's engineers confirmed the bugs, but six months later they still cannot fix them and he only gets weekly updates.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
He built a Command and Conquer style real time strategy game called Battle Drones, mainly using AI. The game runs in the browser and includes device to device multiplayer over an audio link.
