He set up a chain from his phone to the AI to his Windows PC and a background browser. The PC published a post to Bluesky and checked it had gone up, while his other screen work kept running separately.
Told the AI which plugins and settings he wanted in Neovim; now has a single-file setup used across four machines, and the AI bundled gitbutler-cli from source for him.
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.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He had the AI download every video still left on a Twitch streamer’s channel, since Twitch only keeps archives about three months. The AI ran OpenAI speech-to-text twice for about $80, then made an HTML page summing up the public background the streamer had mentioned on stream.
A researcher updating his own old question says he now asks his agent to download the papers his reference manager could not get. The agent works in the browser while he is signed in with his school login, and he clicks through the human checks himself.
Farheen Ahmad (verified creator, 120K followers) was drowning in a saved-Reels folder of content ideas she never used. She had the AI ingest the collection and convert it into a structured dashboard with spoken scripts, carousel outlines and a 'Hook Lab' worksheet, with screen recordings showing the tool learning her 'voice DNA' from her past reels and parsing insights and saves.
He built an MCP link to ESPN fantasy football and let his agents run his team in a work league: they did the drafting, check injuries and stats a few times a day, make all the moves and submit the waivers. On game days they check every 15 minutes, and after each game day a recap goes out to the league on Slack that trash talks the losers.
A man's Bluetooth keyboard and trackpad can only pair with one computer, and the switching tools he found needed both machines awake to work. He used AI to help build his own tool, which moves the pairings to whichever computer is active based on sleep, wake and display events, and he put it on GitHub for anyone to use.
