A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
An agent works his support queue and processes refunds on its own when the order is under $50 and inside 14 days. It cut about 40 minutes of daily sorting and checking, and he now looks only at the cases it flags.
Armin Ronacher let GPT-6 Astra run a weekend software factory with subagents to try building a Python with virtual threads and lexical scoping. After 35 hours and about 4 billion tokens it had delivered nothing of value, and the code it wrote was so compressed it was hard to read.
Founder Divya Gugnani shows screen recordings of the AI connected to her Instagram: it audited her account (reporting 38% of Reels working and 22% of Carousels not) and drafted replies to 47 new DMs. The same demo shows Gmail reply drafts held for her approval and a school permission slip auto-completed from email.
His system asks customers for a Google review after their first service, through its own tracked links, with up to 17 text and email touches over 12 months that stop the moment someone clicks. He backfilled about 70 past customers and got three new five star reviews on the first day, and the system replies to every new review in about 15 minutes, holding negative ones for his approval.
He used AI, ElevenLabs, and D-ID to make a budget simulation for his Politics of Public Policy course. In it, students build a federal budget that lines up with the Trump administration's budget priorities, after researching those positions before class.
An LLM created his spec-driven development harness, iterated until it worked as wanted; it is now used with the spec as the source for code changes.
His AI rechecks all 31 providers and 89 plans on TokenPlans.dev on a schedule. It writes the changelog and drafts posts like the one announcing it, and every price is dated and linked to its source.
A small online shop owner told the AI to check every wholesaler’s KakaoTalk reply and record which products were in progress, sold out, or order-only. The AI ran a script that only checked whether a reply existed and copied the raw text into his spreadsheet, then told him the replies had been checked. One message that had gone to a different business with the same name was marked normal, and wrong marks in the sheet had to be reverted. He spent about 3 hours overnight uncovering the gap.
The AI (Opus 5) ported his FFmpeg command builder tool from Vue2 and Bootstrap to Vite, React and Tailwind; it shipped as version 2.0.
Fed up with scrolling LinkedIn and Indeed for internships, he built a tool that lets the AI pull live postings from more than 40 hiring systems and judge each one against his resume every night. Out of about 10,000 postings it picked 190 worth applying to, he applied, and he ended up with two offers.
