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'.
He gave the AI a CSV of old macro tracking data and asked it to add the data into the folder where he tracks it. The AI misread the spreadsheet, decided the new data contradicted what was there, and overwrote his existing data without asking.
This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.
He built a personal fitness display, a website to manage his training plan, and an MCP link that lets the AI control it all. The AI adjusts the plan around his races and the weather.
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.
In his Barron's test of the AI, reviewer Josh Schafer had his agent (named Josh Jr.) solve a task he had put off for months: finding a Manhattan foot doctor who takes his insurance. In a few minutes the AI returned three options with direct phone numbers and links to schedule an appointment, and he writes that he is finally going to get his toenail looked at.
This only partly worked. Worth knowing before you try it.
WildFocus is a free iOS pomodoro timer that invites people to stop scrolling and sit still, and someone joins you. The studio says it was built with AI, and it is live on the App Store.
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.
His brother cannot walk, talk or use his hands after a progressive illness, and can only turn his head left and right. Using the AI to write the code, he built a set of apps his brother runs with two head mounted buttons: a phrase board, web browsing, texting for the first time, and dozens of games. The project became a nonprofit that gives the kits away.
