A hobbyist designs his own furniture in OpenSCAD with AI, reusing code from earlier pieces. A new design takes a couple of hours including the PDF blueprints, drawn like shop instructions, that he prints so the person cutting his wood panels cannot go wrong.
Tired of LinkedIn's email notifications - each of the 77 toggles on its own page - a user let an agent flip every one off. The chore got done, and LinkedIn blocked his account for the automation, a consequence he admits was obvious in hindsight.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
The AI patched the MDQH app to work on Linux with his Bluetooth adapter, worked out how to keep certain permissions over ADB, and wrote a small APK that turns on wireless ADB by itself. He says debugging is now solved.
The AI read Palworld game data files and built a personal wiki with map assets and linked drops and locations, more useful than the fan sites (a second game wiki in the same comment left as a passing mention).
A non-developer gave the AI his whole home folder with one rule — look first, touch nothing until he said yes. It inventoried 9,412 files, found the chaos concentrated in 312 files across his desktop, Documents and a forgotten 'Misc' folder, and sorted them into six folders named the way he talks (Letters, Money, House, Photos, Travel, Not Sure), renaming files so they can be read without opening them and deleting duplicates only with permission; finding one photo went from 23 minutes to 4 seconds.
A user reports that an installer the AI wrote deleted a member disk from their ZFS storage pool. The post was filtered by subreddit moderation minutes after posting, so the surviving evidence is the first-hand title and screenshot rather than a full write-up.

He has the AI run the upkeep on his main machine and his virtual servers: patches, cleanup, backups, and firewall checks. He reviewed about nine hours of its work sessions and says it may be the best systems administrator he has ever had.
A local Whisper model on his iMac writes out an episode with timecodes. The AI 2.5 reads the transcript, marks the ad blocks, and sends the timecodes back as JSON so his app can build a cut list.
The maker of a small game viewer tool had the AI play the game with scripted commands and write playtest reports. One report, from a manifest file the game loaded, documented a crash on exit, a bad default window size, dead inputs, and several rendering bugs.
