  1. 0:00Paying for Claude and then using it just
  2. 0:02to send emails is like buying a
  3. 0:04Lamborghini and letting it idle in a
  4. 0:06Walmart parking lot. So, in this video,
  5. 0:08I want to show you a hit list of
  6. 0:10extremely interesting high alpha ways
  7. 0:13that you can use Claude that you
  8. 0:14probably haven't heard of before. And
  9. 0:16I'm also going to give you guys prompts
  10. 0:17to reproduce all of these outcomes if
  11. 0:20you just click the second link in the
  12. 0:21description below. The whole idea is to
  13. 0:22help people understand that like we're
  14. 0:24in a massive capabilities overhang right
  15. 0:25now. AI can do a lot more than most
  16. 0:27people think. Check these out. First use
  17. 0:29case is to remove all of the ads from
  18. 0:31your television. This person got really
  19. 0:33pissed at the crappy TV that they
  20. 0:35bought. So, they sent Claude code the
  21. 0:37store listing and then asked it, "Hey,
  22. 0:39can you hack into this TV and then
  23. 0:41remove all my ads?" Claude rebuilt the
  24. 0:43entire thing from the ground up and now
  25. 0:45there are no ads, there's no like
  26. 0:47bloatware or whatever, and there's a
  27. 0:49cute screensaver with their calendar,
  28. 0:51you know, some stripe payments and so on
  29. 0:53and so forth. Then immediately after
  30. 0:54this, somebody else did this before
  31. 0:55their parents'TV and it blew up. So, go
  32. 0:57do it for your own family. Claude can
  33. 0:58also build things. This person wanted a
  34. 1:01dictation microphone, just a microphone
  35. 1:03that allows them to dictate to it,
  36. 1:05presumably to transcribe with AI. So,
  37. 1:07instead of, you know, using your phone
  38. 1:09like a regular person, they actually
  39. 1:10just said to Claude, "Hey, can we build
  40. 1:12this?" And then Claude went and it
  41. 1:13picked a bunch of parts, it designed the
  42. 1:15circuit, it wrote the literal firmware,
  43. 1:18and then it made a case to 3D print it
  44. 1:21in literally just a couple of days.
  45. 1:22Okay, how about this person who
  46. 1:23literally hacked together with Claude an
  47. 1:25air conditioning interface. Look how
  48. 1:27gorgeous that thing is. You know,
  49. 1:29there's no amount of money that you can
  50. 1:31pay an air conditioner manufacturer to
  51. 1:32get a user interface even remotely that
  52. 1:34beautiful. They just sent a bunch of
  53. 1:36notes to Claude on what they wanted and
  54. 1:37a couple hours later they legitimately
  55. 1:39had a working controller in their
  56. 1:41taskbar. How about jailbreaking your
  57. 1:43Kindle? This person just plugged a
  58. 1:44Kindle into their laptop and said, "Hey,
  59. 1:47can you jailbreak this?" Turns out you
  60. 1:49can hack for good. So, Claude removed
  61. 1:50all of the Amazon bloat and put it on
  62. 1:53their own private network. And then
  63. 1:54using this, somebody in Japan did it and
  64. 1:56then turned their Kindle into basically
  65. 1:58like a beautiful home dashboard like you
  66. 1:59might be able to buy from Apple or from
  67. 2:01Google. How about fixing your damn
  68. 2:02Wi-Fi? Uh this person sent Claude Code a
  69. 2:05photo of a really slow, painstakingly
  70. 2:08old Wi-Fi router. I think the speed was
  71. 2:09like 5 or 10 megabits a second. Claude
  72. 2:12went through every single setting, it
  73. 2:13found everything that was slowing it
  74. 2:15down, and then it fixed it, which
  75. 2:16improved their Wi-Fi speeds by 8x. Can
  76. 2:19you imagine improving your Wi-Fi speeds
  77. 2:20800%and not paying a single dollar for
  78. 2:23it? This person got a really cheap
  79. 2:25Bluetooth printer, uh, like one of those
  80. 2:26receipt printers, and they just pointed
  81. 2:28Claude at the printer and said, "Hey,
  82. 2:30could you print an email every morning
  83. 2:32and give me a piece of paper so that I
  84. 2:33can just like take it and then read the
  85. 2:35newspaper again?" Um not super, you
  86. 2:37know, high ROI, but obviously super
  87. 2:38cute. This one is where somebody plugged
  88. 2:40a spare phone into a DJI drone. Uh in
  89. 2:43case you guys don't know, these things
  90. 2:44are really cool and you can take super
  91. 2:46sick photos and videos with them. And
  92. 2:47then gave Claude Code a prompt saying,
  93. 2:50"Hey, could you turn this thing into a
  94. 2:51home security drone instead? I want this
  95. 2:54thing to be prowling my premises like a
  96. 2:56guard dog." Uh they linked it to their
  97. 2:57alarm, and now it runs with no cloud
  98. 3:00like on the freaking DJI drone. How
  99. 3:01about like repurposing your stuff? So,
  100. 3:04this person had an iPad from I think
  101. 3:06like 2010 or 2012, and it couldn't run
  102. 3:08modern apps cuz you know, it's super old
  103. 3:09and whatever. Obviously, planned
  104. 3:11obsolescence is a big deal, right? Your
  105. 3:12washing machine's going to work 3 years
  106. 3:14until you have to shell out a mortgage
  107. 3:16on your home to buy a new one. Well,
  108. 3:17Claude got into the iPad, and then it
  109. 3:20built a wall panel for their smart home.
  110. 3:22Um legitimately, you know, a device that
  111. 3:23you can buy for $30 and you now have an
  112. 3:26infinitely hackable interface. Okay,
  113. 3:28this one's wild. Somebody bought a used
  114. 3:30BlackBerry, remember those, for like 60
  115. 3:32bucks, and then reverse engineered it.
  116. 3:34And now they have a physical keyboard
  117. 3:36and Claude Code in their pocket, and
  118. 3:38it's on a phone that realistically costs
  119. 3:39like 50 or 60 bucks, as opposed to these
  120. 3:42sexy, you know, minimalistic phones
  121. 3:44nowadays that cost like 10x that. This
  122. 3:45guy canceled almost every software
  123. 3:48subscription he owns. His name's Peter
  124. 3:50Levels, he's pretty big on Twitter. And
  125. 3:51he just asked Claude, "Hey, could you
  126. 3:53build a replacement software app for me
  127. 3:55instead based off of this?" It led him
  128. 3:57to having a freaking personal list of
  129. 3:59subscriptions that are now down to eight
  130. 4:01bills. I probably have 80 bills, and two
  131. 4:03of his eight were actually just
  132. 4:04utilities and taxes, meaning he's now
  133. 4:07down to six bills total. Okay, if we go
  134. 4:09institutional here, um Anthropic
  135. 4:11actually proved that their agents can
  136. 4:14negotiate and haggle. They gave 69
  137. 4:16employees their own Claude agents, and
  138. 4:19then let the agents buy and sell goods
  139. 4:21with each other. And the agents,
  140. 4:22independently of the employees, closed
  141. 4:24almost 200 deals on their own. Uh the
  142. 4:26ones with the stronger models, so the
  143. 4:28ones that were maybe ripping an Opus,
  144. 4:29while the other ones were using a Haiku
  145. 4:31or Sonnet, got cheaper pricing, and
  146. 4:33then, interestingly enough, the dumber
  147. 4:34models didn't even notice. So, you can
  148. 4:36legitimately haggle and get whatever the
  149. 4:37hell you want with these models right
  150. 4:39now. Rip it on Facebook Marketplace. I
  151. 4:41know a lot of cracked 18-and
  152. 4:4219-year-olds that are doing that right
  153. 4:44now. I'm not going to talk about the
  154. 4:45moral or ethical realities of this, but
  155. 4:48this fellow connected Claude code to an
  156. 4:51Android phone that he had running
  157. 4:52around. Uh and then he downloaded Hinge
  158. 4:54onto it, plus a couple of text files
  159. 4:56with preferences, deal breakers, you
  160. 4:58know, stuff they're looking for, and
  161. 4:59whatever. BBLs, who knows. It led to 25
  162. 5:03matches a day, and the person went
  163. 5:04through these and said that around 60%
  164. 5:07of the matches that they found on their
  165. 5:08phone were people that they probably
  166. 5:10would have picked themselves. Although,
  167. 5:11to be fair, somebody that would build a
  168. 5:12system like this is probably right
  169. 5:14swiping on everybody and their mom.
  170. 5:15Okay, how about this? You think your
  171. 5:16computer's really hot, and you're like,
  172. 5:18"What's going on with my, you know, with
  173. 5:19the temperature of my hard drive? Like,
  174. 5:21something's funky here." And then you
  175. 5:22ask Claude, "Hey, can you build me a
  176. 5:23simple temperature monitor, just to like
  177. 5:25tell me what's going on?" Well, this is
  178. 5:27what a person did, and they found that
  179. 5:28the readings were really high. And then
  180. 5:30they fed that to Claude, and Claude
  181. 5:31said, "Dude, you have a hidden crypto
  182. 5:33miner currently on your hard drive
  183. 5:35eating all 12 cores and running your Mac
  184. 5:37at over 100°. Let's fix this." On a
  185. 5:39really similar note, another person
  186. 5:41connected Claude code to the head unit
  187. 5:43in a Civic, and Claude found that there
  188. 5:46was a voice assistant always listening.
  189. 5:49There was a caller recorder on
  190. 5:51Bluetooth, and there was some sort of
  191. 5:52backdoor that the vendor left in,
  192. 5:54presumably to be able to snoop on
  193. 5:56anything that person was saying in the
  194. 5:57car. You know, I'm not going to shift
  195. 5:58blame to any particular car manufac-
  196. 6:00turer. It's probably just a crazy ex,
  197. 6:01but that's pretty wild. On that note,
  198. 6:03you can use Claude code to sweep through
  199. 6:05hotel rooms and Airbnbs and basically
  200. 6:07figure out if anybody's listening to
  201. 6:09you. So, that's what this person did.
  202. 6:10Claude checked for Wi-Fi cameras; uh,
  203. 6:12listened for like hidden trackers;
  204. 6:14scanned even their phone for spyware on
  205. 6:16it, as well as like local Bluetooth
  206. 6:18devices; and then, obviously, allowed
  207. 6:20that person to do a very in-depth check
  208. 6:23to see if there were lenses around them
  209. 6:24spying on them in the bathroom or
  210. 6:25whatever. So, most of these so far are
  211. 6:27like, you know, kind of fun and
  212. 6:29enjoyable and neat, but this one's
  213. 6:30really serious. Um there's this
  214. 6:3235-year-old woman called Miriam. She's a
  215. 6:34software engineer, and she found out
  216. 6:35that she had stage four breast cancer,
  217. 6:37as well as a rare tumor. For those of
  218. 6:38you that don't know, you know, stage
  219. 6:40four breast cancer is, you know, one of
  220. 6:41the most advanced types of breast cancer
  221. 6:42out there. And the
  222. 6:44greater the number of stages, the lower
  223. 6:45the likelihood of success. And so, you
  224. 6:48know, Miriam, she hasn't cured her own
  225. 6:49cancer or anything like that, but she
  226. 6:50built a team of something like 30 Claude
  227. 6:53agents to go and research it. This led
  228. 6:55to a biopsy plan that a lab at
  229. 6:58Dana-Farber uh reviewed and then later
  230. 7:00improved, okay? Then Anthropic gave them
  231. 7:03$30,000 in Claude credits. I probably
  232. 7:05would, too. And all of this is leading
  233. 7:07to a potential outcome where you have
  234. 7:09personalized vaccines for the curing of
  235. 7:11things like late-stage breast cancer. I
  236. 7:13mean, obviously, I wish this person the
  237. 7:14best, but we're also seeing the same
  238. 7:16sort of thing with like curing cancer of
  239. 7:18your dog, you know, personalized
  240. 7:20therapies for pets. This stuff is
  241. 7:22currently achievable right now with
  242. 7:24current levels of technology. You don't
  243. 7:25even need a smarter model. This dude, uh
  244. 7:27Cody, ran a whole biotech company as a
  245. 7:30single operator, plus a bunch of Clauds,
  246. 7:33uh with, you know, some part-time help.
  247. 7:34For a year and a half, and Anthropic
  248. 7:36just bought this guy's whole company in
  249. 7:39October. Keeping in mind, this was a
  250. 7:40company of him and their own agents.
  251. 7:43Okay, how about um finding planets? You
  252. 7:44know, this fellow had Claude write
  253. 7:46something like 1,500 scripts to search 7
  254. 7:49years worth of NASA telescope data. And
  255. 7:53guess what? Claude found a bunch of data
  256. 7:55that nobody had put together, and that
  257. 7:57led to realizing that there was a planet
  258. 7:59candidate out there. Hopefully, they
  259. 8:00name that puppy Claude. Uh the next
  260. 8:02morning, somebody else tried the same
  261. 8:03thing, and they found two additional
  262. 8:05planets. It's like, how much discovery
  263. 8:06is currently sitting around in sources
  264. 8:08that we just have too much data for
  265. 8:09human beings to go through. Speaking of:
  266. 8:11when Anthropic asked something like
  267. 8:121,000 Claude agents to go and peruse
  268. 8:15some big database of DNA, it led to them
  269. 8:18finding a new enzyme similar to CRISPR
  270. 8:21that nobody had found before, which may
  271. 8:23entail capabilities like CRISPR's
  272. 8:26ability to help people make personalized
  273. 8:28vaccines and stuff like we were just
  274. 8:29talking about. They just pointed 1,000
  275. 8:32Claude agents at something. Keeping in
  276. 8:33mind these guys have virtually infinite,
  277. 8:35you know, Claude compute. They could
  278. 8:36probably run a stable 5.5 or Mythos 6
  279. 8:40at, you know, 10,000 tokens a second.
  280. 8:42And then they found something that could
  281. 8:43legitimately lead to a revolution in
  282. 8:45biotechnology. Okay, if we make this
  283. 8:46cute again, um this person had a
  284. 8:494-year-old and they loved this older
  285. 8:51kids' game. But, um the series was not
  286. 8:53in the language that they spoke, which
  287. 8:54was French. So, they had Claude pull out
  288. 8:56all of the voices of the game, translate
  289. 8:59the voices, re-voice them using another
  290. 9:01service. Claude did it all on its own
  291. 9:03with some free local voice models. And
  292. 9:05then the kid ended up having like a game
  293. 9:06that they can understand and play. This
  294. 9:08person had a 9-year-old who built their
  295. 9:10whole own website just by talking to
  296. 9:12Claude code. I don't know about you, but
  297. 9:13I was not building websites at 9 years
  298. 9:15old. Imagine the clout that that little
  299. 9:17kiddo has on, you know, the freaking
  300. 9:19playground, showing off, you know, their
  301. 9:21favorite books and like that. And
  302. 9:23and I've actually done this one, but
  303. 9:25this person's wife just wasn't sure
  304. 9:27whether or not, you know, a new bed that
  305. 9:29she was looking at would fit in their
  306. 9:31daughter's room. So, she and, you know,
  307. 9:33her husband gave Opus 5.5 the room size,
  308. 9:36uh gave them four photos, gave them a
  309. 9:38bunch of information about what it looks
  310. 9:40like, then actually built a 3D planner
  311. 9:42of the room that allowed them to walk
  312. 9:43through it and then see. Similarly, I
  313. 9:45was just looking for good photos of my
  314. 9:47girlfriend and I to put up around our
  315. 9:49home. And so, I had Opus 5.5 develop
  316. 9:52like a brief little walk-through library
  317. 9:54um that allowed me to resize the photo
  318. 9:56frames, place them wherever I wanted
  319. 9:58around my house, see how they looked in
  320. 9:59different lighting conditions for
  321. 10:00Christ's sake. And I ended up just
  322. 10:02one-click buying a bunch of them as a
  323. 10:03result. But, there are a lot of these
  324. 10:04sorts of construction use cases. Uh you
  325. 10:06could give Opus 5.5 a floor plan and
  326. 10:08some photos, and then actually recreate
  327. 10:11a three-dimensional house that you can
  328. 10:13walk through before the builders even
  329. 10:15build it. Can you imagine how much time,
  330. 10:16energy, and money both builders, but
  331. 10:19also home owners, can save with
  332. 10:20technologies like this? And guess what?
  333. 10:22You can build it today for like $5 in
  334. 10:24tokens. You ever wanted to like know
  335. 10:25your family tree? I certainly have. Uh
  336. 10:28somebody in the Czech Republic gave
  337. 10:30Claude a birth record and then said,
  338. 10:32"Could you find my family tree?" It led
  339. 10:34to them finding a family tree that went
  340. 10:35back five generations. They didn't know
  341. 10:37any of this stuff before they asked
  342. 10:38Claude, and now they have whole
  343. 10:40genealogy dynasties uh to go through.
  344. 10:42You can do that right now. How about
  345. 10:44this person? They had a baby tracking
  346. 10:45app and it just started charging them
  347. 10:47out of freaking nowhere. There's no free
  348. 10:49tier. I hate when companies do this. The
  349. 10:51good news is you don't have to suffer
  350. 10:52that anymore. They were just like,
  351. 10:53"Okay, screw you. I'm going to get
  352. 10:55Claude to build it." And then they did.
  353. 10:57And now it's free for everybody. Maybe
  354. 10:59you want to learn stuff. Uh this person
  355. 11:01made a way to learn drones without
  356. 11:03having to actually jump into the drone
  357. 11:05and fly it around. Not only did you not
  358. 11:06have to buy that drone anymore, you
  359. 11:09don't even have to like risk it. All
  360. 11:11they did was they asked for a Claude
  361. 11:12skill that could build a site with
  362. 11:14drones that you can put together part by
  363. 11:17part and then fly in a simulation. And
  364. 11:19the, you know, handling and everything
  365. 11:20like that of the drones is extremely
  366. 11:22similar to real drones. So that when you
  367. 11:24eventually get to an actual controller
  368. 11:26with a real drone in front of you, it's
  369. 11:27like you had 10,000 hours in a in a
  370. 11:29flight sim. Did you ever want to learn
  371. 11:30something like really, really fast?
  372. 11:32Well, one of the best ways to do so is
  373. 11:33just find people that are incredible at
  374. 11:36the thing. And the people that are
  375. 11:37incredible the thing tend to know how to
  376. 11:39explain the thing far more simply than
  377. 11:41anybody else. Well, this person fed, you
  378. 11:43know, 40 hours of podcasts where
  379. 11:46developers explained how they got hired
  380. 11:48in depth, the step-by-steps, you know,
  381. 11:50the the mindset to have, and so on and
  382. 11:52so forth. And then Claude just digested
  383. 11:53it and then created a small little
  384. 11:55playbook of probably like a hundred X
  385. 11:57the information density that that person
  386. 11:59would have gotten out of listening to a
  387. 12:00podcast. Again, you can do that right
  388. 12:02now. As people are going to give me
  389. 12:03mixed feelings and and responses to
  390. 12:05this, but I loved Call of Duty: Modern
  391. 12:07Warfare 2. I was 360 no-scoping
  392. 12:0912-year-olds for a long time. My dear, I
  393. 12:12was probably 13. Um how dope would it be
  394. 12:15to be able to play whatever game you
  395. 12:16want again, whether or not there's a big
  396. 12:18multiplayer arena? Well, this dude
  397. 12:21decompiled pretty much all of COD Modern
  398. 12:23Warfare 2 in about a month. Um you know,
  399. 12:25other people use Claude to bring dead
  400. 12:27like 3DS games, uh restore The Witcher,
  401. 12:30you know, they had like an older look
  402. 12:31for The Witcher 3 before the game
  403. 12:33developers came in and presumably kind
  404. 12:34of screwed everything up. You can now
  405. 12:35decompile games and then recreate them
  406. 12:38and make them however you want them to
  407. 12:39be. Or how about like porting old-school
  408. 12:41games to, you know, other platforms? You
  409. 12:43don't actually need emulators anymore,
  410. 12:44okay? You could actually just like ask
  411. 12:46Claude, "Hey, I'm going to plug this
  412. 12:47thing in. What do I need in order to
  413. 12:48connect to it in order to have you read
  414. 12:50it? And can you help me rebuild this?"
  415. 12:51And it will do so. You can also use this
  416. 12:53as a creative or as a business owner to
  417. 12:55determine strategically what to build
  418. 12:57next. So, this fella mapped all of the
  419. 13:00150,000-ish games on Steam and then like
  420. 13:03plotted them on this like cool
  421. 13:04dimensional graph and then just had
  422. 13:06Claude pick out the gaps between the
  423. 13:08games that nobody had created yet
  424. 13:10conceptually. And it led to a co-op
  425. 13:11factory game where one of the players
  426. 13:13like secretly shorted the company's
  427. 13:14stock. Uh some sort of cool sort of
  428. 13:16mystery detective sort of thing. Um and
  429. 13:19that is like genuinely a new concept
  430. 13:20that exists between a bunch of
  431. 13:22pre-existing concepts that nobody has
  432. 13:23done before. You could do this thing for
  433. 13:25virtually any business right now if you
  434. 13:26wanted to. And there's just so much
  435. 13:27other fun stuff, you know, this person
  436. 13:29gave Claude code their camera and
  437. 13:31pointed out the window literally all
  438. 13:32night and then went to bed and Claude
  439. 13:34took all these creative photos. There
  440. 13:36are other people out there that have
  441. 13:37used Claude to do all of their market
  442. 13:38research. Other people that have used
  443. 13:40Claude to become extremely fit, to
  444. 13:43monitor their their glucose, to, you
  445. 13:45know, scrape their freaking genome and
  446. 13:47determine ways that they can improve
  447. 13:49their health that doctors would probably
  448. 13:50charge tens of thousands of dollars for.
  449. 13:52Instead, they only blew 20 bucks on a
  450. 13:54Claude subscription. It really is
  451. 13:56probably the best time ever to be alive
  452. 13:59and watching my YouTube videos. No, but
  453. 14:01just more broadly, like being able to
  454. 14:03use this cool technology. So, yeah, man,
  455. 14:06just like the world really is our
  456. 14:07collective gigantic oyster and whether
  457. 14:10or not you love oysters, I think there's
  458. 14:11a pearl in there for everybody.
