Alistair Barr gave his Dot an old edition of his AI Insider newsletter as a Google Doc and told it to try a test run in the workplace newsletter tool, using the written how to guide. The Dot logged in for him, with a password click and a two factor code from his phone, and about five minutes later sent back a test draft his editor called 95% good.
Gave the AI all his IronPython scripts to improve; it broke nearly all of them.
Locally hosted agents rebuilt a Conductor flaw in an isolated lab and got root access inside the test container. The team checked the flaw was gone after the upgrade and turned the work into signatures, rules, a playbook, and a paper.
The studio had the AI and PixelLab make one sample icon and waited for their OK. Then it made the other 24 in the same style, plus the gray locked versions Steam needs, for a demo at Next Fest in October.
He had wanted an automatic provisioner for his boards for a long time but it was a whole project on its own, so he told the AI to write it. Some physical steps still need him, but each board now takes 2 to 3 minutes instead of a few stressful hours.
Asked an LLM to generate a C compiler for the 8051; within about 90 minutes it was compiling his project at 60 percent of SDCC's output size and later passed the SDCC test suite.
Spent half a day switching GPT-5.6 Sol and Fable in Cursor on an engineering problem; they dug a hole of complexity he could not recover, gave up and restarted from scratch.
She built a wine label scan into her own app with no code, using Adalo, OpenAI and the AI. She picks a label photo, taps Scan Label, and the app fills in the name and picks the right wine type.
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.
A university worker used AI to build a web version of a transcription program that used to need a special Windows machine reached by remote desktop. The new tool pairs a speech model with speaker detection on the university's own systems. Twenty minutes of interview audio now transcribes in 40 seconds with the speaker changes right, and students and staff can use it from a browser.
