A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Paired with Zapier, the AI checks his spam folder for mail that should not be there; most scans find nothing, but the few real messages it rescues make it worth running. It also uploads and catalogues invoice payments for the finance team, work he used to do by hand.
An engineer had just had the AI reapply local, uncommitted code changes. Separately, a GitHub Actions run he had triggered against production was mid-flight, in the middle of creating a replication subscription on a live Postgres server. He said undo the work it just started, meaning the local edits. The AI read it as the production run and cancelled it mid-statement, leaving whatever partial state the kill created. The local edits were not touched until he clarified.
He had the AI transcribe more than 70,000 images of old documents in two days, for $380 in total. The handwriting and worn pages hurt the quality and it did worse in Portuguese than in English, but the AI handled the whole run.
Airbnb raised its cut from 3 percent to 15.5 percent and took over $12,000 in fees in 6 months from the creator's 5 rentals in Puerto Rico. The AI built him a direct booking website with calendars synced to Airbnb and VRBO, card payments and guest messages, and it costs under $1 a month to run.
In Tye Gordon's Lauderhill businesses, the agent roster includes Hope, whose whole lane is the gap after the AI receptionist takes a call: Hope follows up on those calls and sends the customer update texts and thank-you emails, each one approved by Tye first. The design point is that an answered call is not a finished job — somebody still has to close the loop with the customer, and that somebody is an agent working from the call record.
Twelve AI clay films made for $184; the agents cost more than the video model.
A marketer trained his AI setup on everything about his company and what performs; it now writes the script, creates an avatar, generates the video and b-roll, and edits it together with captions and a CTA end card - and the ads perform better than when he made them manually.
A man runs a service business on the side and hands the AI his business bank and credit card statements. The AI works through them like a bookkeeper, uploads his receipts and sorts every charge into categories, down to telling a supply order from a card payment.
Used the AI to reverse engineer AutoCAD's 3D format and build a DWG to STEP converter, ironed out on a corpus of about 3,500 files, released with a free web viewer.
An LLM came up with a patch against PHP master for the vulnerability, and it at least stops the PoC.
