A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
A creator gave the AI a screen recording and asked for a setup tutorial; the agent produced a HeyGen video presented by her own avatar. It kept her preferences in memory for follow-up video work.
The same pro made a second the AI for quotes. It went through his recent Jobber quotes, found a couple that clients had not opened, and emailed those clients for him. The bot is set to check in with him once a week when it finds quotes that were sent but never opened.
He wanted one place where people can find all the apps he is working on. The AI built the site, beardfm.app, in about 15 minutes.
A man at a company that paid $300,000 a year for Looker for ten years says one engineer, working part time for a couple of months with AI, built a home grown replacement for their dashboards. The core idea checked out in a couple of weeks, and the company told Looker it will not renew.
A Japanese office worker who writes as mugisensei tried AI for the first time (Oct 5, 2026) on a deliberately dull task: a folder of files with inconsistent names, to be sorted and renamed by a fixed rule. Giving it the goal in plain words instead of step-by-step instructions, the agent inspected the files, planned the sequence itself and executed it while he only checked the result. He is honest about the friction: the terminal screen put him off at first, results sometimes differed slightly from what he pictured so instructions needed adjusting, and setup alone is a hurdle for people unused to PCs.
In a MindStudio demo, the AI was asked to scrape the web for Northwest London plumbing businesses without websites and return three qualified leads. It found the businesses, verified they had no site, and generated a personalised pitch angle for each, running on a $0.24/hour CPU instance.
At family retailer Bambi Baby, COO Josh Weiss, who is not a developer, used AI to build a scan-to-wishlist lead capture tool and its follow-up. Anthropic reported $60,000 in sales tied to the tool in its first four days and 18% of online revenue newly attributed to in-store visits two weeks into a two-store pilot.
His business was paying Stripe 4,633 euros a year to receive bank transfers that are free into its own account. He had the AI go through 12 months of Revolut and Stripe charges.
MindStudio confirmed an AI setup that scrapes competitor websites on a schedule and delivers a formatted report every Monday covering pricing changes, launches, funding and incidents. The watchlist is frozen once in chat and the job then runs untouched.
He let GPT-6 Astra work on a few simple features. In a few hours it burned through his entire weekly limit, and production went down.
