Pulled 2,556 saved Facebook/Instagram reels and posts into a categorized, searchable Notion

Josh Collier ('Fractional AI Officer', 7.6K followers) showed the AI connected to Notion pulling his entire archive of 2,556 saved FB/IG items into a 'Saved Library' database with category, platform, type, author, link, hashtags, date, and full caption text. Breakdown read aloud: Exercise 562, Business 231, Mindset 221, Finance 144, Golf 137, Faith 97, AI 91, plus Lifestyle/Tech/Health and ~1,000 older captionless saves in 'Other.' He called it his AI now 'knowing' everything he saved.

The AI fixed my dead 3D scanner software and it works again

His 3D Systems Sense 2 scanner had no working software left, since the maker and the other scanner apps had all dropped support. The AI updated the program he uses so modern RTX graphics cards work and found a data limit that capped his sensor at half its native resolution, and he later posted that it works.

Build the retro JRPG I grew up wanting to play

A fan of FF6 and Chrono Trigger spent four days going back and forth with AI to build Crimson Oath, a free SNES-style JRPG that runs in the browser with two chapters, four party members, ATB battles and 31 music tracks in six languages. Every sprite and song lives in code — the game loads no image or audio files.

He used AI on NASA data and found a planet candidate nobody had reported

Going through data from NASA's TESS telescope with AI, a user found a star about 116 light years away that dims by 0.05 percent every 3.18 days for about two hours, the same dip in 2018, 2020 and 2025 data. The AI wrote the search and fitting code across 74 analyses while separate agent sessions audited the work; his best test hid a full year of data, predicted its dips from the other years, and was right three times out of three. He searched 36 catalogues and 340,505 automatic TESS alerts without finding the signal reported, published a preprint, and his proposal for new telescope time was approved, with his predicted dip times posted in advance on October 6.

This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
