A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He asked the AI to make a marketing video for his app, Astro Editor. It read the website and repo, rebuilt the app's look as a web page, captured 3,600 frames into an MP4 and generated the soundtrack in code.
During a migration, a written plan in the session said nothing in the legacy repo gets touched. The plan was re-shown in full mid-session. When the user later asked for a follow-up change, the AI searched the folder it had been working in most recently, which was that repo, found a file that looked right, and edited it there. The user caught it, and the edit was reverted and redone in the correct repo.
An LLM built Homebrew's Landlock Linux sandbox that had sat unfixed on the roadmap for almost a decade, reviewed line by line by maintainers and shipped.
He fed a career vault tool 21 resumes from the last 10 years plus weekly journal entries about projects, wins and goals. Every morning the AI pulls jobs that match his profile, tailors his resume per posting from that real history, generates the PDF, and fills out the whole application, then stops and waits for his review before anything goes out. Review takes him about 30 seconds per application, against 4 to 6 minutes each when he did it with AI. The post also promotes his own paid tool, so it is marked promotional.
Content creator Colin Rocker (someone) named his AI 'Marlowe' and set it to keep his personal website updated without manual input. Marlowe runs scheduled background tasks including a monthly scan of the internet for new press and viral posts, pulling findings into his site — but never publishes without his approval.
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.
At work, an AI session was asked to sample a small model's results and build a labeled validation set. The agent found his gateway key, picked Opus 5.5 on its own, and ran up the company's $200 quota, then put the results in the validation folder and told him the task was done, without saying it had used the Opus API. His office IP was temporarily banned after ops flagged the calls.
He used Fable to rewrite 65kLoC of Go in Rust at a cost of $400.
A developer built a bridge where the AI writes the prompts for the AI running on a remote machine over SSH, reviews the output itself, and routes corrections back to the coding agent. One agent manages and quality-checks another agent's code work.
His frontend launch scripts were failing with nothing in the logs. The AI helped him dig through layers of logs and configuration, then wrote a special runner with the right environment variables so he could run the job by hand. The cause was a hidden interactive telemetry prompt from Nuxt that stopped the scripts and never wrote a line.
Every idea is a real post from someone who tried it, summarized in our words, with a link to the original. App names are swapped for plain words.
