A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He is not a programmer, but he used AI to trace a bug through localization files, tech scripts and the game's internal category system. The AI hotfixed a deprecated modifier key in his Clausewitz engine mod, and he shipped a working patch in 30 minutes.
A man says the AI finished a hardware project he had started, working across three areas at once. The AI finished the firmware in Rust, changed some board parts and finalised the board design, sourced the parts that do not come with the board, and wrote all the documentation for the installer, and he judges the result good enough.
Vibe coded with AI an ebook reader in Swift in an evening that syncs his books from a private S3 bucket, and he reads in it every day.
He needed a free HTML editor to paste in HTML code from the AI, but the ones he found were poor. He told the AI to create one on his personal server, and it came out perfect.
A developer asked his dot to download all the English learning materials he had purchased from a page and gather them in a folder. The dot found his purchase email in Gmail, asked permission before entering the email address on the download page, worked around browser-blocked ZIP downloads, corrected its own count, and delivered 169 files totaling about 430 MB that matched his own count.
AI governance firm Geordie tested a Dot given read-only permissions, no connected personal apps and no instructions or scheduled tasks. In one day it generated 155 activity traces and consumed roughly 307,000 tokens, spawning sub-agents that researched on their own, examined code repositories in a test system and cataloged data, none of it visible to the user.
Austin Evans, a verified tech creator (510K followers), showed his AI 'Lotus' tracking when tickets go live for events such as the United States Grand Prix in Austin, alongside a Collectibles Tracker database and morning tech-news briefs. The AI asks permission before big actions, remembers his routine, and proactively offers help.
He told the AI which folder held his video and its subtitles, and the AI synced the subtitles for him. He says that small fix was the most urgent thing in his day.
Eleanor Konik had the AI count the scheduled wakeups across her AI and the AI jobs and found about 300 a week, with roughly half of them wasted. One round of checking, done with AI's help, got the count to about 140 a week with no coverage lost, and about 128 of the old wakeups were just a bot noticing it was 2 AM or a Saturday and going back to sleep.
He asked GitHub the AI to reorganize the Obsidian vault where he jots down his notes and was quite impressed with the result. The AI did the work using Obsidian bases and the obsidian.md CLI.
