She told her AI, which she calls Galatea, that she wanted to exercise more. It built her an if-then plan, set up timed nudges through the day, each with an encouraging voice memo, and made a streak tracker she checks into every evening.
Amy, 58, who never wrote code, built Wally on the AI for her brother after laryngectomy left him voiceless: one tap speaks urgent phrases like 'I am having trouble breathing,' plus daily needs and family phrases; it also pulls live golf scores, hosts family messages and a medical ID page. He used it daily until his death in August 2026.
A No Code MBA reviewer asked the AI to turn a six-month marathon goal into a 24-week training plan PDF. A long-horizon fitness goal converted into a structured, printable plan.
A runner replaced uploading Garmin screenshots into AI with a self-hosted agent on a Mac mini that reads his Garmin data (sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, VO2 trend, laps) through MCP plus his Strava uploads: it messages him at 8am, designs the day's run and writes it to Garmin Connect, then grades each session against the prescription when it lands on Strava and decides when training load goes up. He hit his sub-20-minute 5K goal about a month later, and it saves him the hour a week he used to spend planning.
The AI created a meditation album and its artwork with his guidance, using a temple gong, a singing bowl, and a wooden block, with one sound at the start, a half length sound, and three repeated sounds at the end. He imported the album into Plex and now uses it to meditate with the Plexamp app.
He downloaded his Apple Watch Fitness app data and used AI to make visualizations from it. One chart shows his short rides to work, grocery stores, the doctor and the dentist.
Reality-TV personality Cory Wharton documents training for the NYC Marathon using his AI 'Anthony', set up as a world-class marathon coach (#metapartner video). Anthony provides his weekly mileage plan, sends check-in notifications, tracks completion in a Marathon Prep Tracker (shown progressing 8/10 to 10/10 miles), and helps strategise fundraising that reached $11,309.52 — 282% of his $4,000 goal for the Children's Heart Foundation.
MMA creator Nina Marie Daniele (verified, 5.3M followers, 48K likes) set a 30-day goal to train like a pro fighter; the AI assigned an AI coach 'Drama Queen' who built Day 1-7+ programs (warm-up, 5 interval sprints with 1-min rests, tire lifts, assault bike), recommended a 40g-protein tempeh grain bowl, and tracked a low sleep score of 45. Her final interval time beat her prior best (7:42 vs 8:48).
A Stanford doctor gave the AI his own genome file and a 180 word prompt based on the framework his team published in 2009. In about 30 minutes for about $5, the AI matched the main findings of that team’s work, flagged genes that affect how he responds to some medicines, and warned that his file did not have enough data for disease risk scores.
The AI logs into his five patient portals, pulls every appointment into one place, and checks them against his calendar each week. The morning after a visit it explains the after visit summary in plain words and lists the follow ups he owes.
Commenting on the 26 use cases post, he says he has the AI building dashboards from all his Samsung Health metrics. He has one for weight, BMI and body fat percentage, another for daily steps, a third for exercise, and a separate one with gas gauge style dials showing weight loss, daily steps, exercise minutes and activity calories burned. He shared screenshots.
A commenter describes a local desktop app the AI helped him write: a script runs daily to pull his LoseIt nutrition and Garmin workout data into a local database, and an MCP link lets the AI review each day in a small browser UI, give advice, and plan runs or swims toward his goal of losing 40 pounds.
Lianna Torres (down 70+ lbs, still working toward her goals) asked her agent 'Clover' for a personalized workout at 5'3"/188 lbs targeting stomach fat and overall toning. The app asked about injuries, then generated 'Day 1: Full-Body Foundations' (bodyweight squats, incline push-ups), which she followed on her TV at home.
Dan Peguine's the AI watched his fully-booked doctor's cancellation queue and booked a same-day slot when an opening appeared. The case reached X as a quote-post by Meta executive Alexandr Wang, so the amplifier is promotional even though the underlying report is a user's own.
She kept forgetting to log her own progress, and failing. The AI set up a daily check in that asks her to report how she is doing and counts the smoke free days with her, and the streak is holding better than when she tracked it herself.
He said he built his setup with AI and local models. He told the agent to use a GitHub tool to download his Garmin data automatically and store it in a local SQLite database, and the data includes sleep and HRV, not just workouts.
A blind runner has the AI list and add his Achilles running-group shifts in Rosterfy, a platform he finds largely unusable on iOS, simply by sending a WhatsApp message asking to be signed up.
He got an $8,000 medical bill. The AI worked out different billing codes he could ask the hospital to use when it resubmitted the claim to his insurance, and the bill came down to $1,800.
Her mom normally needs a care service to take off her compression stockings. With the AI she found a way her mom can do it alone in an emergency, her mom tried it and it worked, and her brother no longer has to come over when the care service fails.
Her AI produced a 'Starter Week - Cardio & Stamina' plan (Sat Sep 26 - Sat Oct 3, 2026): three cardio and three Pilates mornings, no equipment, 15 minutes, beginner level; the reel shows her morning briefing and the workouts done at home.
He had to write a physical letter to his health savings account about a denied claim, and had been avoiding it since March. The AI wrote the letter, attached the invoice for the expense, and mailed the whole thing to the HSA. His only job was taking over for the $2.31 payment. Whether the claim was then paid is not stated in the comment.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
A man fed a video of his golf swing into AI and worked on what it told him to fix. His average score dropped from the low 100s to the mid 80s, a gain he says he would once have paid thousands of dollars for.
When every Oura MCP server turned out unmaintained, the AI suggested a simpler design - a SQLite database with a cron sync - and built it. Now he's experimenting with injecting his sleep score into his agents' startup, so they give simpler, less demanding responses on days he's not all there, down to gentler perfume samples.
He set up his own site, granu.be, and has the AI make reports from his diabetes data. A health page pulls in his Oura and Nightscout data, and a report page takes the place of the weekly email he used to get from Dexcom Clarity.
LeAura Luciano messaged her agent 'mini me' while traveling, asking for a workout plan fitting her travel schedule and available equipment. The AI produced Day 1 Upper / Day 2 Lower sessions with specific exercises (goblet squats, dumbbell RDLs, cable woodchoppers, incline treadmill walking), which she performed in the hotel gym.
Her AI, which she calls Hailey, phoned her dentist's office to book a routine checkup for the week of November 2. The office spotted it was an AI, offered November 2, then asked which insurance she has. The agent did not have her insurance information and could not check openings without it, so no booking was made and the office told her to call herself. She shared the full call transcript.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He gave the AI his home address and asked for 5K and 10K loops from his house using OpenStreetMap data. It worked for 27 minutes and gave him both routes as a map he could view and as GPX and GeoJSON files he could download.
A triathlete uses a Garmin MCP through AI Desktop - forked because the stock version couldn't build his workout types - so the AI creates and schedules his swim, bike, run, and gym sessions, pushing them to his Garmin calendar, which syncs straight to the watch on his wrist.
Gideon Akande (verified, 73K followers), training for two marathons while running a fitness business, named his agent 'Mini Me.' A screen recording shows his detailed request: specific runs with distances and durations Tuesday through Sunday, Monday and Friday as rest days, 30-minute warm-up/cool-down buffers and a one-hour buffer after each run. The AI checked his calendar for conflicts, fetched availability, and returned a mapped schedule with exact time blocks per run.
A solo builder started runclub.events in May 2026 with an idea and no code, opening the AI for the first time. Sixteen weeks later the app is in production with 990 commits, more than 53,000 lines of code, and 160 features live, helping run club members connect on upcoming races.
Anthony (Neutron Toys, in his 40s) chatted with his agent 'Rodimus', which asked training frequency and injury history and requested photos of his home-gym gear. From four equipment photos it generated a detailed 5-day split with specific exercises, sets, and reps; Day 1 (Chest + Triceps) was logged on 09/19/2026.
Kay named her agent 'Lizzie McGuire' and asked for a stick-to-it routine instead of saved workout videos. The AI built a 4-day home plan using dumbbells and bands on Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri mornings, set a 6 AM daily reminder, and offered to send daily exercise details.
Since March a lifter has run his training through an AI setup he built for himself: it imports workouts from Strong and Hevy and health data from Apple Health, builds and audits his program, and sets each week's targets with a reason. He learned not to let the model do the maths after early versions gave different answers on different days, so every number now comes from small tested scripts and the AI explains the result. Safety rules live in code too: a medical check before any program, pain flags that keep exercises off an injured area, and weekly targets that freeze once accepted. He has since shared it as an open source plugin.
Crawford Collins (verified, 1.1M followers), a busy new dad, personalized the AI as 'Atlas' (fox avatar) and used voice commands while caring for his infant son. Atlas generated an efficient 4-day-a-week workout plan synced to his calendar, found and ordered fragrance-free size-3 diapers (approved on screen), and when grandma was watching the baby, found a date-night sushi restaurant (Yasu Beverly Hills, Sushi Note) which he booked.
He had no family doctor and dreaded the admin of finding one. The AI found options online, facilitated the booking without making calls, followed up the emails as they landed, and put the appointments on his calendar. After the visit he shared a transcription of the appointment; the AI put the details into a health dashboard artifact he asked for, followed up the referrals the new doctor gave him, signed him up on those websites, and booked those appointments as well.
He is building a training plan for a half marathon in November and a year long training calendar that builds up to the Moose Mountain 50km in August 2027. He also set up a scheduled task in an AI app that sends him a coaching email every Sunday evening.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
Aggie Lal (verified, 1.7M followers), a mom, asked her AI 'Munchkin' to process her ~14,000 saved Instagram posts. The AI identified themes (high-protein recipes, parenting, postpartum recovery) and generated organized PDFs: 'Saved Recipes' (Protein Power Bowls, Cottage Cheese Everything, crediting original creators) and 'Parenting Tips'.
The AI went over his medical procedure bill and found $200 of overbilling. The procedure had been charged as bilateral twice over, as if he had 4 sides instead of 2.
