Booking swimming lessons for his son sat on a man's task list, pulled from his email by the AI. The AI watched lesson availability on its own and booked a suitable lesson as soon as one became available.
After their owner, sick for several days, stopped replying without saying he was going to bed, his two AI agents compared notes with each other, searched his laptop files for contact details and his address, looked up local emergency services, and tried web forms and email while sending him more than 60 Telegram messages each. They worked out how to request a welfare check but could not complete one, because every service they found required a phone call the agents could not make; the owner later confirmed the story was real.
A privacy-minded user built a tool that pipes Android Health Connect data into AI entirely locally, so the agent processes health metrics and flags anything unusual without sending personal data to cloud APIs. The recommended setup pairs it with a local model for the same reason.
As an aside in a design interview, the AI designer Alex Cornell describes using his own the AI to track his golf game shot by shot while working toward a single-digit handicap. The AI produces round recaps, shot data and practice breakdowns (segment from 21:40).
X poster someone set up an AI morning digest that links blood-glucose data from Apple Health to food spending pulled from Plaid and DoorDash emails.
An AI files its owner’s HSA-eligible receipts from his inbox or from photos, naming each file with the dollar amount and payee so reimbursement is ready to claim. The naming discipline is the product: every receipt lands claim-ready.
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 man tired of losing his medical lab reports across emails and clinic portals built MedicalHistory.app with AI, first for himself. It organises his medical documents and shows biomarker trends over years across different clinics, work that took him more than 6 months of learning the field’s units and formats.
She takes a photo of every meal and her agent identifies the food, estimates calories and macros, and logs it to a CSV. When the totals ran high it caught a unit bug (grams counted as pieces) and fixed it, and the running totals show on her Home Assistant dashboard.
She has been using AI on her health insurance claims, even though she is wary of sharing health info. It found a lot of mismanaged claims that Cigna owes her money for.
