A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
The AI built him a set of local jobs on a Mac mini, and no model runs inside them. New Todoist tasks print as small tickets within half a minute, and at 7:30 each morning a brief prints and arrives by email with the day's calendar, overdue tasks, weather for two towns, and two clients' numbers from the day before, each set against its seven day average.
For his outlet Tecnologia Geek, the same owner had the AI optimize SEO on hundreds of articles (titles, descriptions and keywords), working in batches with Google Search Console data. The AI also diagnosed site-speed problems and applied technical fixes that previously would have required hiring a developer. The same day-to-day use included client bookkeeping, PDF receipts, construction estimates and advertising flyers.
A community college counselor of 16 years turned her idea for paid degree planning into a working side business: The AI helped with the business plan, built and edited her website, including a later round where Work mode edited the live Squarespace site directly, found leads and shaped her replies to potential clients. She has her first client and a lot of leads.
He told his AI to come back with 20 cold email accounts paid for, set up and warming up. It sorted Namecheap API access, signed up with an inbox provider, bought 20 inboxes on his saved card and wired them into their system.
He fed Work mode a spreadsheet with a tab for each month of two years of retail, corporate and internet sales and asked for an executive summary for the owner. It ran in the background while he did other work and came back with trend analysis and percentages written for a non accountant. The owner loved it, and he figures it saved him days.
He uses AI Desktop as his social media manager and mailing list manager. Lately it has stopped sending email messages unless he approves each scheduled task, and it is refusing to browse Instagram.
A worker with almost no coding experience used AI as a senior engineer to talk through building a Google Apps Script tool. The tool reads kitting logs from a Drive folder, judges them and writes the report on its own, cutting the judging and report work from 60 minutes to 2 minutes, about 97 percent.
Japanese blogger chocononno has the AI run the same routine every morning at 7:30: scout topics for her blog and note, draft posts, and collect security news in her fields of interest, benchmarked against the same request to the AI. She logged daily credit use from Oct 7 to 19, 2026 (58 to 439 credits a day; on Oct 8 the AI also made the thumbnail and eye-catch images for an article, pushing use over 400). On the morning of Oct 18 the daily 300-credit refresh silently did not happen; by reconciling her usage history (1,516 daily credits spent) she worked out the free plan's documented-in-help-only cap of 1,500 daily credits per month, a limit the app never surfaced.
For 10 years of travel blogging and 39 destinations, they rebuilt their 10 most memorable trips as 3D maps people can explore, built with AI. Each map has their route, their photos, and the story of the trip.
Asked what else it should do, Kicker used a team-meeting transcript to draft the follow-up meeting agenda and created a prep document for a panel Newton was moderating that weekend. Both artifacts were produced proactively from existing context.
