A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
The writer's mother forwarded him an email asking if it was a scam, and he thought it was. His dot corrected him: the suspicious-looking email@contact.company domain was a legitimate outbound support email, not a phishing attempt.
He uses an iOS app the AI made for him. When it feels slow he sends a screenshot and notes through TestFlight, the AI is told at once and ships the fix in the background.
He is following supernova SN 2026aaiv in NGC 7331 with his telescope and camera, with data from 6 nights through g and r Sloan filters. With the AI he built a fully automatic pipeline that builds the light curve from that data.
A blind AppleVis reviewer writes that he recorded a WhatsApp audio message from an Uber asking the AI to sign him up for an NFB CENA webinar on iOS 27 updates. The AI processed the signup flawlessly, relaying to him the survey questions the NFB form prompted for, and put the webinar on his calendar — one of dozens of conversational automations he set up in his first week.
He replaced dozens of separate the AI chats with one persistent Dot chat. Dot starts remote the AI threads on his always-on Macs to update his Obsidian vault or find order details, and it messaged him on its own about flooding in Hawaii days after he had asked about Hawaii weather.
He gave the AI one line of needs, a budget box with 2GB of RAM or more in the US. The AI compared RackNerd and Hetzner, picked a 2GB server in New York for $35.99 a year, filled in the checkout, and he approved the payment.
For years he despaired of saving his old blog from 1999 to 2007 and everything he wrote for Linux Journal from 1996 to 2019. He asked the AI for help, and the AI rescued both sets of writing and put them back online at searls.com, though some Linux Journal pieces are still missing.
He had never played fantasy football before this year. His AI powered team scrapes injury reports and fantasy blogs and models player points, and he is beating his friends every week.
The AI built an automatic Clone Hero charting solution, ripping audio from YouTube and using Whisper to time vocals.
Opens an LLM in his dotfiles and complains until his broken LSP config works again, usually in a few minutes, a recurring fix over months.
