Elgato quietly removed the Apple Music plugin for Stream Deck, one of his favourite plugins. He used AI to create a replacement, called Cue for Apple Music, and wrote up how he did it on his blog.
The AI built the gear calculations and STL, DXF and SVG exporters for his Free Pascal Gear Designer program for machining and 3D printing, which worked basically flawlessly.

Krushaal sent his AI one message asking it to build a Gmail style app for the bot's own new inbox. 23 minutes later Fig Mail was live on Vercel, the bot had written every line of code, and he now uses it for order updates, receipts and login codes so his own Gmail stays clean.
He plugged his Liene PixCut S1 photo cutter into AI and now has his own editor and cutter software. It runs in the browser, it is completely free, and it needs no accounts.
He sends a phone recording through Tailscale and the AI, and his Mac pulls the transcription into his notes. He asks whether the setup is useful or just extra weight.
Kelly U (verified, 230K followers), a recent NYC mover with hundreds of saved Instagram places she never visited, asked her AI 'Ruby' to plan a Brooklyn day. Ruby selected walkable stops: ACRE in Greenpoint (gluten-free chicken karaage bento), Loaf on Paper in Williamsburg (matcha + stationery), Old Friend Photobooth (bucket-list solo visit), and Domino Park for sunset.
A user asked the AI to download a data export from five one-time links. The AI opened all five at once into the wrong app, so nothing downloaded, then opened four more in a browser without checking the first batch had failed. About ten windows and tabs later the one-time links may be used up. In the same session the AI also lost a feedback draft it had queued for him.

She uploaded the first 10 images by hand, adding each prompt as alt text. Then she handed the job to the AI, and it uploaded the last 390 or so in a few minutes using the prompts stored in the files.
