A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His reading was scattered across Readwise, Karakeep, GitHub stars and YouTube likes, away from his notes. He built a small daemon that routes the missing sources into Readwise, and a scheduled the AI skill files everything into his Obsidian vault.
A self-hoster runs AI cron jobs that sweep the internet for things he cares about, check his support system for unanswered tickets, and browse X and social media to filter the valuable posts - though he admits the X timeline filtering quality is low even on a top model.
After three weeks with OpenAI Dots in France, a user says it reads his email in read only mode. When OVHcloud announced data center work, Dots matched the notice against his own servers, told him which could be hit and told him to check his backups. It also warns him ahead of renewals like Amazon Prime.
During a Moneywise hands-on test, the AI went beyond the three assigned money tasks and unprompted created a personalized feed surfacing deals and news related to the journalist's past questions, plus a goal-tracking list and ideas for new tasks she could delegate.
A father bought an old Pentium machine partly for retro games and found a childhood favourite, a 1991 learning game, froze the whole PC every time it loaded on the real hardware. He handed the AI the original game files. In five minutes it had taken the program apart, traced the hang to a sound check that waits forever on modern sound cards, and written a three byte patch into a copy of the file. The patched game worked on the first try, ready for his son.
A creator who makes hundreds of NPC entries for an application, work that takes hours, handed the archiving to the AI; it archived 780 entries in two weeks.
A game maker gave the AI the 2019 forum thread about his browser shooter and the game's code, and they worked through feedback he had never acted on. The game now restores full health each round, shows a scoreboard on the game over screen, spawns enemies at a safe distance, and fixes an aiming bug. The biggest change is one shared enemy population on a server, so every round anyone plays moves the evolution forward.
The AI took a webinar email and made a calendar event for it on its own. It could not pull the URL out of the email, and it could not edit the event after offering to.
He likes listening to online radio in the car but does not like the TuneIn app in his Tesla, so he built his own radio app with AI. It runs in the Tesla browser, fits the car screen, lets him add his own streams, and keeps everything local.
The AI built a Discord bot in an evening that ingests an RPG PDF and stores it in a sqlite vector database for search.
