Summer 2026, Swiss Alps

Day hike above the tree line in Switzerland, started early to escape the heat. The first hour is always the worst - steep climb, cold feet, doubting your life choices. Then you step over grass and rocks and the valley just opens up below you. The villages look like toy models, the air becomes thinner and cleaner, and at some point you stop thinking about anything but the next step.

Behind It's totally worth the blisters.

Looking for real-world AI use cases

I’m collecting real examples of how AI has improved processes in real projects both technical and non-technical.

If you have a case you can share, I’d love to hear about it. It can be something big or something simple that just made your team’s life easier.

A few examples of what I’m looking for:

  1. Before/after with numbers For example: a process took 10 hours before using a tool, and now takes 2 hours.
  2. Results for the client For example: you helped a client achieve X by using AI for Y.
  3. Any other practical AI use case Maybe AI sped up development, reduced repetitive work, improved QA, helped with documentation, research, analysis, or something else.

No need to share anything confidential even a short description of what you did and what changed would be super helpful.

Would love to hear about your real experiences rather than generic “AI can improve productivity” examples.

Kostrych ridge, Kostrych and Kostrycha mountains, Carpathians

A few photos from our summer multi-day hike to the Kostrych ridge (Kostrych and Kostrycha mountains). We started from the Kryvopillia Pass. The ascent is easy, there are few people. 

The sunrises here are magic. At the Vesnarka polonyna, we visited the shepherds. They welcomed us like family, fed us fresh banosh, treated us to bryndza, budz, vurda, and hot Carpathian tea. We ate our fill of blueberries right next to the tents.

How did you get your cats used to brushing their teeth?

Not long ago, I saw my cat's show teeth (the ones he chews with) and was surprised that they were covered in tartar, and some were blackened.

I started giving them a special toothpaste, but it obviously didn't fix the problem.

So, I'm curious to know if anyone has taken their cat to the vet to have the tartar removed, and if anyone is doing any preventative measures at home.

Zaovine Lake in Serbia, territory of Mount Tara

Zaovine Lake is located in Serbia, on the territory of Mount Tara. This artificial reservoir is known for its turquoise water. There is a lot of forest around, and locals who don't see tourists very often. Although the local hosts treated us to pancakes.

Due to the remoteness from big cities and mountainous terrain, it was interesting to see how the graves of the residents were literally in the courtyard of their huts.

Interesting place!

Georgia, Svanetia, Summer

It is Ushguli, one of the highest continuously inhabited settlements in Europe and Georgia, situated in the Svaneti region at an altitude of approximately 2,100 meters above sea level.

Tucked away in one of Georgia's highest mountain villages, this ancient stone settlement is like a secret the mountains have kept since time immemorial. Traveling here in the summer, the locals welcomed us with open arms, treating us to incredible food and stories that made us feel at home under the shadow of the medieval towers.

We thought our AI agent was getting smarter every day.

It turned out that it was just... confused.

During development, we decided to let the agent remember previous conversations to provide better, more personalized answers. This worked great in testing, so we continued. After a few days, we noticed something strange: the agent started mixing information between completely unrelated tasks. It referenced old conversations when it shouldn’t, inferred outdated context, and sometimes based its decision on information that was no longer relevant.

The worst part? The error wasn’t obvious. Each of Cream’s answers seemed intelligent, but over time, the accumulated context made the agent less reliable instead of being useful. We accidentally taught it that everything is worth remembering.

Conclusion: Memory is one of the most powerful features of an AI agent, but without clear boundaries, it quickly becomes one of the biggest sources of error. Now we know exactly what "not" to do.

High Tatras, Slovakia

Spent a few days in the High Tatras, Slovakia.

The nature is something special. Lakes, waterfalls, forests, rocky peaks can be walked in a day.

The locals were wonderful, the food in the mountain huts was solid, and a full meal cost about 7 euros.

If you haven't been there yet, go before everyone knows about it.

Tanzania, Kilimanjaro | February 2026

Spent this winter hiking Kilimanjaro in Tanzania along the classic Coca-Cola route. The local guides were incredible cooked proper meals for us every day out on the trail, which I didn't expect at all.

Got a bit sick along the way, but honestly? Totally worth it. Nothing a little stomach trouble can't fix when the views look like that.

On the way to Santorini from Athens (Greece)

We caught an early morning ferry from Athens to Santorini. Our tickets didn't have assigned seats, so everyone just grabbed any open spot they could find and watched the deep blue waves crashing from the ship's turbines. Every now and then, we'd make quick stops at other islands along the way to drop off and pick up passengers. Such a breathtaking experience!
