Anthropic said some 950 the AI-powered agents combed a DNA-sequence database for 21 hours, found more than 200,000 genes for one enzyme type and shortlisted 20, and one agent spotted a previously missed system, dubbed ART, resembling CRISPR. Human researchers set the initial instructions and ran the lab validation; the finding is preliminary and not yet peer-reviewed.
I passed a brand new AWS exam with AI drills and a Notion study hub
AWS opened the AI Business Strategist beta exam on September 29, 2026 with no third party study material. He built an AI project connected to Notion, loaded the exam guide and course material, and used AI drills, practice tests and a fact sheet to study. He sat the exam on its first day and passed.
My agent sorted my 2,527 card collection into 61 deck roles for 22 cents
A Magic player built a collection manager with AI and needed every card sorted by what it does in a deck, not by the words on it. The AI ran his whole collection, 2,527 different cards, through a classifier that gave each card a fit score for 61 roles like ramp and card advantage. It took minutes and cost about 22 cents, and the AI wrote the method into a reusable skill for next time.
I had the AI build the denoise tool Lightroom would not give me for JPEGs
He was missing Adobe Lightroom's denoise feature for his RAW photos, so he had the AI build it. The app also denoises his standard JPEGs, which Lightroom could not do, and he has a lot of low res, noisy JPEGs lying around.
An LLM maintains his research document and the pipeline that rebuilds its figures
An LLM maintains his org and LaTeX work document, an external library and CLI, and a Makefile and Snakemake pipeline that regenerates content and figures and puts numerical results into LaTeX macros.
The AI pulled the logs for my router cases. Six months on, no fix.
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.
Our AI watches our Wordle group and keeps the leaderboard
He and his friends share their Hádej slova and Wordle results in a WhatsApp group. Their AI, named Klepeto, watches the group, builds leaderboards and statistics from the results, and also plays under its own account.
Laid off on Tuesday. The AI shipped my game by breakfast on Wednesday.
His role was cut on Tuesday morning, 22 September. That evening he asked the AI for something fun, gave it one standing instruction to go forward and only pause when his input was needed, and by 6:37 the next morning a three stage beat em up about the job hunt was live on the internet, with his real CV linked from the end card.
The AI made his animation and voiced it by working around the container limits
He had the AI produce an animation with a voice-over inside a sandboxed setup. The direct routes to the audio tools were blocked by container limits, so the AI found another way to generate the voice, and the finished piece plays.
