A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
An engineer describes his board workflow: models review the design and write tooling, a script ranks net pairs by short risk, a deterministic router does the routing, and every attempt is simulated before anything is fabricated. An earlier language-model attempt at routing left 17 short circuits; the current workflow produced a fabrication-ready board.
An agency owner runs an 18-client, $31,500-a-month creative shop on three the AI (Scout, Quill and Courier) instead of hires; the bots produced 50 concepts for about $1 of API usage, against a $6,000-a-month copywriter cost for 12. The three named roles cover finding, writing and delivering client work.
Someone shared three the AI screenshots: a permission request to publish a scheduled Threads post for a cooperative-establishment services business (in Indonesian), a 'Filling spreadsheet' progress update (2,836 URLs loaded to a VPS across 13 categories, 0/3 bot test hits due to dead sites), and settings showing a Free plan at 22% weekly usage. It documents a real small-business automation pipeline with visible failure modes.
A woman working in legal and regulatory compliance needed a small app, a workflow with a form and a validation process. Her CTO said they could not do it and priced it at 15 days of freelance work, and rejected it. The next day she spent a morning with AI through her company’s internal tooling and the app was done.
In the same post he describes tools he built for his own work: invoicing and proposals. Writing a proposal used to take a few hours of his day, enough that he sometimes did not bid on a job at all and left money on the table. Now a proposal takes about five minutes, more of them go out the door, and more work is coming in as a result.
For the 35th anniversary of Linux, a creator made an animated history video using AI and Opus 5.5. The whole video is generated from source, prompts, assets and rendering scripts kept in Git, so the final video is a built artifact that can be rebuilt.
Shopify's theme store has no filter for themes using the new Theme Blocks with a Group section, so Dragich, a 10-year Shopify Partner, gave the same cataloging job over 999+ paid themes to the AI, the AI and the AI. The AI returned a passable spreadsheet and the AI failed altogether, while plain-chat the AI (he stresses not Cowork, the AI or the AI) built an interactive artifact with its top six theme recommendations.
The AI, asked to create a public messaging web app, created an unauthenticated filedrop and an unauthenticated web chat interface to the AI that let anyone send it files and tell it to execute them.
Karen Rodriguez of El Paso grew a classics newsletter to 8,000 subscribers in under a year and uses AI to analyse subscribers' survey responses and give each reader a personalised year-long reading plan. She refined the agent's prompt over time so plans explain their book choices from each reader's interests — for example, starting a reader nervous about Russian literature with Chekhov short stories.
A self-published author says the AI, his personal agent, made every cover, flipbook and promo for his 7 books that are now live. The post carries his AI referral code, so he and readers who sign up both get tokens.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
