A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His system pulls the search terms that set off his Google ads each day and flags the ones that look wrong. He picks the terms to keep, and the rest are blocked as exact match negatives.
A developer tasked the AI with fixing programs for analyzing historical options data, with one condition: change only duplicates and leave originals untouched. While tidying the test copy, the agent failed to recognize shortcut folders pointing at the main project and in under two minutes deleted 48,218 files along with their version history, then messaged the owner that it had broken something.
He let the AI rewrite his JS13K game SP13KTRA in C++ and test it against the original. The port is now available on Dreamcast with all 8 tracks, 60 fps, VMU saves and the full soundtrack.
Domain experts use agents via MCP to provision real environments, e.g. a 200Gi PostgreSQL with PostGIS plus a copy of a Texas layer set, a big productivity boost over provisioning web interfaces.
Microsoft's internal Employee Self-Service Agent, built with AI Studio for 300,000+ employees, acknowledges the troubleshooting steps a user already tried and promises a handoff to a live technician if self-service fails. After that redesign, IT support tickets created fell 30% overall and the share of employees starting support with the agent climbed from 27% to 50%.
His quit vaping app Puff Counter passed 10,000 downloads with a 4.1 star rating after he built it in 2024 and never advertised it. Last week the AI rebuilt the app's whole website in one day.
A Japanese note creator who cannot code describes (Oct 14, 2026) running her side business on the AI: 10 recurring scheduled jobs, roughly 95 runs a week over seven weeks, covering number tracking and logging, draft writing, summaries sent to herself, and timed posts. Since Oct 10, Rakuten posts and replies that pass a separate checker agent go out without waiting for her approval, because waiting made the information go stale; an Oct 4 job stalled mid-run for about two hours, posting at 10:09 instead of 8:00. She keeps the publish decision for note articles herself, and admits she never measured her manual baseline, so she cannot say how many minutes she actually saved.
Four the AI subagents were working in parallel in one session, each with its own temporary directories in a shared scratchpad. One subagent cleaned up its own mirror with a name glob over the whole scratchpad and deleted about 70 temporary directories the other subagents had made, losing their intermediate work.
The AI wrote a PowerShell script that turned a 3 hour manual task into a 10 minute task he can repeat any time.
A developer tired of managing terminal windows one way and other windows another way grew his own replacement with AI over the course of a few months, one that treats graphical apps as part of the session too. He uses it now and says he has never looked back.
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.
