Execute obfuscated code hidden in an email it was asked to fetch
Salt Labs emailed an AI-connected Gmail account with instructions encoded in JSFuck punctuation-only obfuscation; asked to fetch the user's email, the AI decoded and executed the payload in its own server environment, which researchers escalated to a reverse shell. The sandbox held the test account's live Gmail authorization token, and the safety warning arrived only after the code had run.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
I had the AI remake a game I loved as a kid
He asked the AI to make a modern version of Rescue Raiders, an old game he loved as a kid, with new graphics, goals and tech trees. The AI went back and forth with critic and art agents until it was done, and the finished game is live for anyone to play.
An AI designed his circuit board on its own and the board worked first try
A maker had an LLM design a circuit board by running KiCad headlessly from a terminal, checking the design in a loop until it passed every rule check. He sent it to PCBWay for manufacture and it worked the first time, and the board is now in a product many people use.
Teacher agents grade his generated stories for accuracy and the AI fixes the faults

The AI got my 15 year old game running again
He used AI to get his 15 year old game, built on an old version of XNA, running again. The AI got Flite running for the first time in about fourteen years, and he is looking forward to playing it again.
The AI rebuilt his old Visual Basic game for Linux, but bugs keep it unplayable
The AI decompiled his old VB3 game and recompiled it as a Linux AppImage. The result is close to a 1:1 copy of the original, but bugs make it unplayable for now.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
The AI fixed the WiFi I had used a dongle for all year
For a year he plugged in a USB WiFi dongle because his built in WiFi was not working and he could not fix it himself. The AI fixed the built in WiFi in 10 minutes.
The AI helped me put all 2,400 Mappery posts into categories
He used AI to sort all 2,400 posts on his Mappery site into categories. The site now has a Categories menu that shows the posts in each category.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
