A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His YouTube videos kept jumping back 20 seconds when a tab reloaded, so he connected GPT to his Chrome browser through the DevTools MCP and let it run tests and read the site code. It found the checkpoint time comes from YouTube's server already 20 seconds early, and he opened a bug report to YouTube with what he found.
The AI took a webinar email and made a calendar event for it on its own. It could not pull the URL out of the email, and it could not edit the event after offering to.
Built about a dozen boards using GPT-5.6 Sol; his favourite is a Pi CM5 carrier board replacing the laptop board in an old Sony Vaio P.
Told the AI which plugins and settings he wanted in Neovim; now has a single-file setup used across four machines, and the AI bundled gitbutler-cli from source for him.
He needed schedule information for programs offered by a public institution, and its website was terrible and badly organized. The AI made a new website that organized all the information into a filterable table that runs on his phone.
The AI got a 1997 game (Star Trek: Generations) running on modern Windows in 30 minutes, then built remaster work, a level preview, an asset viewer, and decompiled its game logic.
Two friends wrote fiction together in chat for years. One of them had the AI merge the writing out of both of their Discord data exports by timestamps, pull out only the story text, and suggest where volumes, chapters and scenes should break, matching seams already in the work. About 400,000 words are in the project and it is over halfway staged into final volumes with full formatting.
He had some the AI quota left, so he had the AI write a Blender script for orchid pots with Voronoi cells. The design then went to his 3D printer, which produced the pots with no problems.
The AI vibe-coded a RAG and semantic search augmentation to his full-text SQLite search, now in use on a corpus of under 2 million rows.
He joined the AI’s cloud computer to his Tailscale network and gave it SSH access to a restricted user on his home Ubuntu box. After a series of proceed replies from him, the AI set the rest up itself. It can now run commands and browser work through his own hardware, and he uses it as the control point for his homelab: Docker, VMs, his NAS and Proxmox. The setup uses a dedicated non sudo user and SSH keys, with no open ports.
