Created a personal AI podcast
Leslie Samuel put the AI to work on 11 real tasks with screen recordings, showing what worked and what needs supervision. One was generating his own personal AI podcast.
A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.

Making things, learning and having fun · 960 ideasI asked the AI for its own files and it sent me 6.8 GB, SSH keys included
A user asked the AI to archive the files it could see and send them to his Google Drive. The AI sent an archive of about 6.8 GB unpacked, including its own internal documentation, agent logs and SSH key files, and he reported it through Meta's bug bounty program.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
A chatbot built the browser extension that puts the map link back in his search results
Asked a chatbot to make a browser extension that adds the Google Maps link back to search results; uses it almost every day.
The AI fixed the menus and search on my blog archive
The AI helped him add drop-down menus to his archived WordPress blog so his 460 podcasts and more than 6,000 blog posts can be reached by category and by date. The AI also helped configure the search box for dynamic searches.
Agents run my fantasy football team and trash talk the league for me
He built an MCP link to ESPN fantasy football and let his agents run his team in a work league: they did the drafting, check injuries and stats a few times a day, make all the moves and submit the waivers. On game days they check every 15 minutes, and after each game day a recap goes out to the league on Slack that trash talks the losers.
Turned a 20-year-old blog into a daily podcast
Cornell's third live demo on How I AI: The AI converted his 20-year-old blog into a daily podcast, an archive-repurposing use case for a long-running content creator.
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 sorted my chats into projects and deleted the empty ones
He spent about a tenth of his AI 6.1 SOL use having it sort all his chat threads into a few main projects and clean out the empty ones. It used the Chrome browser and finished the job with no mistakes.
The AI built me a small app so I could chart two football games
Instead of just watching film and going on impressions, he charted the Western Michigan and Minnesota games. The AI built a small browser app to help him chart and then summed up the plays, and he shared EPA numbers on standard downs for the Minnesota game.
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.
