A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
Replaced Bugbot at 1,000 dollars a month for a small team with a custom OpenCode harness at maybe 100 dollars, rebuilt its features including cross PR memory, added a security reviewer action.
A designer treated the AI like a design engineer for his client Wordsmith AI. After 8 versions and more than 90 rounds of feedback, they shipped Draftboard, a live tool where anyone at the company can make on-brand images in a few clicks.
Glossaries for his Moodle course used to be a lot of work for a poor payoff. The AI made matching XML for them and he had it in the course in 2 minutes, with only the proofreading left to do himself.
A perpetual the AI thread in his llama.cpp checkout periodically sweeps PRs and research, rebuilds llama.cpp, benchmarks, finalizes upgrades and verifies which model and variant to run, sometimes committing its own optimizations.
A couple runs their online shop with a team of AI agents, each with its own job: one handles products, categories and stock, one does deep search analysis, one makes product photos and short videos, one runs the blog, one posts to social accounts, one manages ad campaigns, and a brand expert that knows every manual and writes in the shop's voice. Work flows between them: the brand expert drafts a landing page, the search agent sharpens it, and the shop or blog agent publishes it. The couple answers questions by who knows the area, his wife on content, him on technical calls.
A man with no coding experience used AI to generate a VBA script in Excel. The script fixed a manual data entry gap at his work and took the risk of typos and misreads out of the job.
He used AI to mod a program he uses. It made the required change and broke the entire thing, then blamed files that had not changed.
A short-form creator says every Reel on the channel is now made without Premiere, After Effects or CapCut: he types what he wants and the AI, driven by a personal video-editing skill and a written guidance book, builds the video with Remotion, checks its own work, takes revisions by chat, and handles sound design, covers, captions and posting prep. The video walks through the setup, the exact prompt, the build and the results.
He let the AI UltraCode run overnight on their triggered ad server. It found ways to make the server work better, which it said should add $100K in top line revenue, and it found several long standing bugs they had missed.
He had already written the handout for an upcoming presentation. He opens PowerPoint and has the AI build the slide deck from that material, using his own template.
