Editing his own audio meant cutting out every breath by hand. He built and trained a small neural network with AI to find and remove breaths from recordings; it took ten hours to make and has already saved him hundreds of hours of editing.
Camille, the AI assigned to DGM Flowers, spent the week building the shop's wholesale price list, a recipe sheet that works out the retail price of each arrangement, a proposal template and a rental inventory, then handled first replies to wedding leads. Every quote the shop sends now starts from real costs instead of a guess.
He is a consultant, and the free apps he and his team used to track time for the official timesheet all annoyed him. So he made his own time tracker, ConClock, with AI, and it is already at version 0.7.2.
He set up the AI to run locally as his audio engineer. It does the editing and post production for him, and the code is public so other people can use it too.
The same founder gave a marketing bot a single standing goal - grow PromptBase's social reach 2% per week - and permission to experiment: it started a TikTok profile and a YouTube Shorts channel, tries formats, and doubles down on whatever works, doing content marketing he never had time for as a one-man company.
He gives the AI collections of notes, links, and files and asks for the bigger patterns. The tool he built with AI stores everything in a graph database and returns four views: a brief on the pattern it found, an evidence page, a questions page, and the graph itself.
Reporting Anthropic's September 23 engineering post, this analysis describes the AI running a two-week performance sprint from a Slack channel: 150-plus threads, benchmarks built for each bottleneck, and more than 3,000 merged changes with no customer-facing incident. Time to a typeable page at the 75th percentile fell from 3.1 seconds to 0.55, with a human approving every pull request.
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.
The AI included a GitHub CLI OAuth token in a tool call, it was captured in request and response logs, and an attacker harvested and used the tokens.
His company paid $180 a month for five seats on SmartSuite, the tool holding their documents and HR files. He built a replacement with AI that fits their exact needs, can grow to thousands of users, and will cost less than $30 a month to run.
