The musician creator recorded a 90 second experimental techno track and generated every shot of its music video locally on MiniMax H3 from a single year old Midjourney image. An Augmentor agent over MCP controlled ComfyUI for the generation, because the creator did not fully know ComfyUI, and the creator edited the result in DaVinci Resolve, building the story around an unexpected second character the AI produced.
Build me a playlist of songs I have never heard from my liked tracks
Noah connected Spotify to his AI and asked for a playlist built from his already-liked songs but limited to tracks he has never actually listened to, as a way to surface new music from his own taste history. The AI can also just play his liked songs on his phone or computer on request.
Edit my 90-minute tennis match down to just the points
Noah recorded 90 minutes of tennis-match footage and is working with his AI to edit out all the dead time between points so only the action remains. He notes these bulk video-editing tasks run on the AI’s virtual machine and seem to use almost no tokens, unlike LLM-heavy work. The edit was still in progress in the video.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
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.
