A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A client needed a small design job that would have taken him hours. He sent the AI a screenshot and a few ideas he liked, asked for a print-ready Illustrator file, and the client approved the first attempt.
He gave the AI one big job: go through his entire Zotero library and build an Obsidian vault on disk that documents every article, sums each one up, pulls out the key ideas and links articles that share ideas. It ran for 34 hours straight on his 20 euro the AI plan without hitting a limit.
The Life Force Design owner named her AI 'Flow' and gave it a real creative-business job (Etsy shop LifeforceDesign): over ~48 hours it helped organize ideas, plan content, create working systems, review decisions and prepare material for publication — intention to execution to review to publication.
A client problem came in by email. He told the AI to read the complaint, connect to the machine and fix it, and 20 minutes later the problem was fixed, the client had been emailed, and he was back in bed.
A Korean content operation handed three channels (Naver blog, Threads, WordPress) to an AI agent publishing at 9:00, 13:00 and 17:00 daily, logged over Oct 15-18, 2026. A rule requiring the AI review approval before publishing caused three consecutive zero-post rounds when the review step was blocked or could not find its command; after the human demoted review to advisory only, a full round finished in 33 minutes. The same topic posted at the same time drew 629 views on Threads versus 2 on Naver within four hours.
A WooCommerce store owner had a legacy on-site point-of-sale system whose vendor finally offered a backend way to pull customer emails from a mailbox - and he avoided implementing it for two months because the integration looked painful. One evening, about two hours with AI produced a small working plugin; tested that night, it now automatically does data entry he describes as hours and hours of manual typing.
She used three AIs to cross check each other, mostly the AI in Word, and in about two weeks wrote and filed a 59 page unlimited civil complaint for her own case. The lawyers tasked with that work charge $300 an hour.
A network engineer with two school-age kids built ProgressCove with AI after no task app fit his family's project tracking. It is released on Android, iOS, and web with a Home Assistant integration, family accounts, and a paid tier funding its upkeep.
In CData's worked test, a Dot queried live Salesforce data through one plugin and tabled the five largest open opportunities closing this quarter, flagging all five with no logged activity in 30 days. One deal was still open six days past its close date; the account used test data, as the post discloses.
His agent runs once a week: it finds companies on Google Maps, finds a real person's contact details on the web, and drafts a personal email for each one, which he approves before it sends. Across 200 companies it produced 20 interviews in four weeks, and he spends about an hour a day on the replies.
He is a solo founder and his marketing team is five AI agents: content, creators, onboarding, SEO and a chief of staff. They post to 7 channels from one app, and the whole setup costs him $49 a month.
He used AI to build an analysis of his own Substack posts. It split the posts into themes and pulled together collections, so readers can click through every theme, motif and term in one place.
His system pulls the search terms that set off his Google ads each day and flags the ones that look wrong. He picks the terms to keep, and the rest are blocked as exact match negatives.
A WordPress developer built a complete plugin, Makitweb Copy ID, with AI working inside his project: two short prompts produced the plugin structure, the PHP row-action code and the clipboard JavaScript, including a fallback he never asked for. He reviewed the code, made no changes, activated it and verified it worked on Posts and Pages.
His agent gathered evidence on security findings, and on review only about 25% of its write ups were right. He kept its screenshots, which were solid, and stopped trusting its notes.
Migrated his product from DynamoDB to Postgres over a weekend with AI and has been happy with the change 4 to 6 months later.
He built a sine wave generator script for Adobe Illustrator using MATE, and it took about 5 minutes with AI. The script is now free for everyone in Astute Manager Pro.
He and the AI mapped published datasets and converted them into meshes for Moho depth, basin depth, and two sedimentary basin depths. The work pointed to a tight spot under the South Gate area of LA.
An agent reopened WhatsApp talks with buyers who had stalled at the payment slip stage. Buyers who talked with the AI converted at 8.36 percent against 0.17 percent for those who did not.
A creator connected the AI to a Shopify test store two ways (Shopify's own connector and Ryze) and ran three read-only or draft-only jobs: a product audit flagging drafts, out-of-stock items and missing SEO titles, SEO title and meta drafts, and a Black Friday collection plan with a proposed discount code. The video also documents what the connector refuses: no refunds, cancellations, payments or live-theme edits.
