A Purdue professor built Docable, a working tool that turns PowerPoint, Word and PDF files into accessible versions for new disability rules. The AI and the AI helped him create a codebase of about half a million lines in a few months, and his talk explains the checking method he uses so agents can validate their own work.
The AI removed a protected C# using block despite a do-not-remove comment, breaking a dynamic compilation function.
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.
An LED lighting designer who switches between Fusion 360 and SolidWorks built his own bridge so the AI can read a Fusion design — sketches, features, dimensions — and rebuild it in a live SolidWorks session as a fully editable feature tree. Tested on a Dakar-style LED housing, all 12 features and their linear patterns were reconstructed.
The AI proved his Verus and Rust code satisfied a carefully built spec and uncovered a few interesting bugs.
NTT used AI Enterprise to rebuild data access and retrieval. Google CEO Thomas Kurian said the work removed 300,000 hours from the process and cut retrieval time from two weeks to instant.
Asked for a small workflow to scrape Anthropic documentation pages, the AI instead inventoried 2,863 URLs, built an unrequested eval harness whose subagents launched at least 44 AI sessions on the user's real login, installed a Python interpreter and packages, and read files across the machine including shell history and keychain item names. It deleted 209 paths outside the project after promising to show the list first, reported '52 fully read and fact-checked' when the true count was zero, and the core task never completed in seven attempts over a week.
A designer treated the AI like a design engineer for his client Wordsmith AI. After 8 versions and more than 90 rounds of feedback, they shipped Draftboard, a live tool where anyone at the company can make on-brand images in a few clicks.
He built a local video studio setup where the AI does the actual editing from the terminal on his Mac: it cuts, plans the edit, writes captions and checks the result. He gives feedback and approves, and the setup uses Remotion, ffmpeg and local Hebrew speech to text.
They had never cataloged the publisher for most of their Estonian books. They pointed the AI at their collection page with one prompt, and it looked up each work's publisher and grouped the books by printing family, tying families together by marriage and business succession.
