Hey! Honestly didn't expect this to hit the HN top, I've already maxed out all my token limits!
If you enjoyed wasting time here, there's a Buy Me A Coffee link in the footer.
Thanks for the incredible response! This is why I really love building weird useless stuff for the internet.
UPD: You guys are incredibly creative! 15000 products generated and counting. I'm laughing reading all this absurd stuff and crying at my upcoming bills haha
Scrolling through what's been generated is an interesting way to explore what the underlying image model can represent. Personally I feel like everything starts to look the same very quickly. This is just an observation on image generation models, not a knock against the product which I think is great and had a lot of fun with (I'm the proud inventor of the Cthulu back scratcher).
You could make money off of this if you are able to pair willing manufacturers to realistic and popular ideas that get generated. It could become a real market place.
Hilarious project.
Edit: I did both Mouthwash Ramen and Time Machine to the Present. I’m now addicted to this, thanks.
I know of a company that is huge in laser for physics and started like this in the 80s (through magazine catalogs).
They would list all kinds of lasers. When they got some offers for one of them, they'd sell it and schedule the delivery in 90 days. Then, they started the project from scratch. Crazy stuff and borderline legal :D
We do something similar at work. Except usually the dev department doesn't know until handed the project from sales and so the project goals might be entirely unrealistic given the deadline.
What do you mean that feature doesn't exist? Well, I sold it to the customer, they have to go live in two weeks and their workflow depends on this feature.
While I've fortunately never had this happen to me, I'd be tempted to say something like, "Wow. Well, I sure hope you don't get fired over this. Good luck. We'll scope it out and let you know how much time we'll need."
Having been on on the customer side it's frustrating how often the situation is: Me: "So, you got a bid which offers features A, B, C, and D we asked for, and you say it also has X and Y and hit our budget?" / Buyer: "Yes".
A week later. "OK, their install team says it can't technically do C yet, however there's an early 2026 preview scheduled which addresses most of C. The D feature isn't in the edition we have, our buyers are talking to their sales people and we may need to pay extra to unlock D. And you're correct that two other organisations in our industry confirm X is dogshit and you'd be better off without it but it can't be disabled. Still A does work, and we have filed bugs about the known defects with B so hopefully we can get those fixed"
Every time I buy a product as an ordinary consumer I marvel at how much worse my huge employer is at buying products than I am. I reckon if they were sent to the store to buy a whole roast chicken with a £20 note they'd come back with six expired chicken sandwiches and no change.
> Every time I buy a product as an ordinary consumer I marvel at how much worse my huge employer is at buying products than I am.
It's the size of the deal that matters. Most of the consumer goods you buy are sold on a take-it-or-leave-it basis. No individual sale is worth the vendor forming a "relationship" with that customer or promising bespoke features. B2B sales are often large deals that require months of negotiation and may be worth millions. Bullshitting in order to land the deal is incentivized on both sides, to the point where both only have a fuzzy idea of what exactly is being bought and sold.
But consumers get this experience as well when they make larger purchases. When I buy a car, maybe I fail to mention the unreported fender bender my trade-in was in, and maybe the salesman tries to charge me $1200 to etch "anti-theft tracking numbers" on the new car's windows, citing some dubious statistics about vehicle recovery rates.
Maybe they exist but I haven't worked in a company yet that wouldn't fire an engineer or manager for refusing to implement a feature that some salescritter already sold. One of them made the company money (on paper, sure) while the other is threatening to undo the deal. It's not hard to guess which one the c-suites would send packing first.
oh you agree to do it but you laugh, literally laugh, at their deadline. and you say, you can fire me but that's not going to get your software done on time. in fact it will delay it.
they shut up. it's done when it's done.
I've done this many, many times. Oh you promised it by the end of the week and didn't ask me? lol, that sounds like a YOU problem.
Fortunately it doesn't happen too often, and some can be attributed to our somewhat complex feature matrix that differs by regions due to reasons.
On the other hand, in our niche customers usually don't swap software providers often due to integration work needed.
When an opportunity arises, it's usually because the yearly license expires. So we got to either sell it now with a hard deadline in the near future, or wait 5+ years till next time they switch.
So that can lead to sales being a bit optimistic when making the pitch.
I've been on both ends of this workflow. Sales always wins.
"Wow. Well, I sure hope you don't get fired over this. Good luck. We'll scope it out and let you know how much time we'll need."
"We'll see."
The big-screen TV in the modern glass conference room showed the final slide: “Questions?”.
"I.. I'd like to add that this feature we sold is not in the product and we can't just go around adding features that Sales makes up out of the blue just... just to close a deal. I mean, we gotta plan these things, there's a procedure, we should get product involved..."
Head of Sales, interrupting: "Can't we, Jeff?"
Jeff, the middle-manager, shuffled his feet: "Uh. Yeah. Right. I think we shouldn't. Hey! Haste makes waste, that's what they say, right?"
Head of Sales: "Can't we Barbara?"
Barbara, the boss: "I don't know. Let me call Pradeep"
(Barbara presses the "huddle" button in Slack on her big iPhone. A few rings and a bored voice replies)
"Yeah?"
"Sorry to jump on you like this, Pradeep. Would you mind coming to meeting room seven for a second?"
Less than a minute later Pradeep walks in, his thick glasses casting a green hue over his eyes, his arrogant demeanor preceded him like a shadow.
"Pradeep, did you read the feature request I messaged you?"
Some smart stealer was posting bikes of his neighbors online second hand marketplace and waited to get contacted for specific model to steal them. Genius evil
A previous boss did this in the early 2000s. Put up a bunch of single page descriptions with "coming soon" labels, include an email subscription to "stay on top of news", turn on AdWords to get some traffic... and then start working on what people were actually interested in.
Ya, I know this strategy under the name “smokescreen mvp”. I don’t remember exactly, but I think it is advocated in the lean startup. Personally I am a big supporter of the strategy. Many startups fail because _nobody cared about the problem_, and this is totally avoidable
Yeah this seems like the kind of thing people would have advised me to do when I was trying to start startups around 2010. But I was too focused on engineering and had no head for the business side so I never tried it.
Engineering-to-Order! Not all that uncommon of a model in some industries, but problems arise when Sales doesn't have good communication with Engineering about what is actually possible for what price on what timelines.
Totally. You also get batch efficiencies shipping 10k orders in a day vs dribbling them out over weeks, and you can use sub-standard shipping methods that are cheaper because… the carriers themselves are also batching the work.
Someone email me when I can buy Barbed Wire Toilet Paper. That one is my favorite. Its so devious. Imagine needing TP but all you find is one roll. Rolled in barbed wire.
I’m so envious people get such good ideas. I always come up empty when trying to invent something that is enjoyable to use, fun, funny, partly an art project, partly making us question ourselves and our habits… Of you want a piece of that feeling: https://anycrap.shop/product/regrets-for-what-could-have-bee...
Could you walk us through the process of coming up with the idea for this website?
The website was created for learning and fun a few months ago and forgotten as a completely useless product, I absolutely did not expect such a feedback that I received here today
I always have a lot of ideas, but this project seemed to me the least creative of all, it seems like it's too obvious, I don't know really, it's just generate stuff with available models, like a million of similar or more useful ideas
I was gonna do this as a way for people to stop buying things they don’t need. They get the “buzz” of going through the process of buying something (checkout, credit card form etc) they get a confirmation email and everything.
The watch in the image has hands, but the text below seems fine (if a little silly):
"This wristwatch presents timekeeping in a non-traditional manner. Rather than displaying hours via hands, it projects temporal coordinates directly onto the wearer's retina through advanced ocular stimulation technology. The watch face remains blank at all times, except when illuminated by subtle flashes that indicate elapsed seconds."
Didn't work out that well, sadly. At first it gave me a greek pillars, then when trying english translations it at least gave me some springs.
It knew the https://anycrap.shop/product/airhook. But only for light loads like snacks and the "heavgy duty airhook" it wanted to sell me is for a clothesline. While useful, I'm afraid your product engineers have to spend some more time so that we can reliably suspend cars from the air again.
As much as the site is an incredible outlet for absurd creativity, some of the creations would actually work as small batch orders. The octopus hoodie is a great example, and I would not be surprised if there were people willing to get different variations of it. (Lovecraftian flavour, anyone?)
OP: well done, you have unleashed on this world a toy more addictive than a cocaine enema.
>you have unleashed on this world a toy more addictive than a cocaine enema.
No offense to you meant, but I wonder in general where the need for this kind of hyperbolic phrasing comes from. As it seems to be everywhere on the internet.
It was meant as a compliment, and it was not intended as hyperbolic. But since you ask...
In this case I thought it would fit with the already absurd tones exhibited in the thread. More generally, the technique is not "hyperbolic phrasing" as much as deploying a comedic angle. Comedians (especially oneliner and short-form comics) often seek ways to emphasise a visual image. The more vivid the mental imagery, that much more effective the double punch of the words and the internal visual hit.
The same technique is also occasionally used by some of the most effective tech talks; if you manage to combine a factually correct detail distillation with a punchline that invokes a strong and somewhat controversial mental image, that has a high likelyhood of being remembered.
And note the end of that URL. This isn't about Trump. This is about the Secret Service.
I'm not being funny here. I'm not being political. I'm not making normative claims here. I'm not saying whether this is great or awful or whatever. I'm not trying to score internet points. I'm telling everyone reading this, screwing around making threats to the President, regardless of who he is, is not something you should do lightly. If you want to do it, I won't stop you, but I'm a big believer in understanding what risks you are taking rather than being blindsided by them. There's plenty of people who have discovered the hard way that this was more risky than they realized and I'm trying to help treadump not be one of them, in the spirit of helpfulness, not internet points.
Pretty cool! As someone who is currently trying to get good at doing fullstack I can't help but wonder what stack did you use and how much time did you spend on it?
This is amazing! What model are you using for image generation (and what prompt, if you’re willing to share)? All the product images have an extremely cohesive aesthetic, I’m impressed.
Ohh. Sassy: This ancient tome contains centuries-old arguments recontextualized to justify modern societal constructs. Its pages hold the collective reasoning behind every unjustified assertion since the dawn of civilization. From patriarchal dominance to colonialism, every morally dubious decision has been meticulously documented within.
Historical quotes have been carefully curated to provide talking points against critical thinking, conveniently tying complex social issues into neat theological bows.
This Broken Clock boasts an unconventional timekeeping mechanism where hands randomly align at correct times thrice daily. It may seem broken, but somehow its fractured gears grant fleeting moments of accuracy amidst disarrayed hours. Its aesthetic appeal lies in the subtle ticking sounds between erratic movements.
Despite its unpredictable behavior, the clock has gained cult following among those seeking respite from precision schedules. For those willing to tolerate chaos, this peculiar timepiece offers three reassuring glances at reality within every 24-hour cycle.
It generalizes to the formula r = -(n - 2)/2, so if we want a clock which is right every second, we could have a clock going backwards 43,199 the normal speed...
Another possibility with this idea is to have a normal clock but with the 3 and the 9 numbers inversed (going backwards at normal speed). Such a clock will be right 4 times per day.
> The Flammable Fire Detector is designed specifically for environments where fire hazards require enthusiastic responses. This revolutionary alarm system combusts upon detecting flammable materials within close proximity.

Very cool. You can pair this with a 3d printing service add on to monetize a subset of the products. Can also potentially sell the aggregate query data to vendors.
Interesting content filtering. Seems like pretty much anything is allowed except for products with "system prompt" in the title. The LLM self sensors the description of inappropriate content but the product and pic gets generated.
Very cool project. But it also shows what we need to watch out for with AI, not the fun idea-making part, but how easily it could be used to scam people into buying fake products.
Sony MDR 605LP is an example of a very open design. I used to own a pair, and I quite enjoys listening to them (by myself). Seems like today Open-Back Headphones is more popular, they are still open in the back.
The sound of the open air headphones are a bit hard to describe with other words than 'open' :-P It's just a bit more like listening to speakers.
refine the product image and type so you don produce hallucinated products and your good to go. i can see this being the future for amazon. why search for a product when they can just make what you wanted and save the trouble of guessing for you.
"As dusk falls, a sophisticated LED network simulates twinkling stars across the screen's surface, recharging the battery by exploiting quantum fluctuations inherent to cosmic background radiation."
"As users experience heightened excitement during intimate encounters, the contained insects will occasionally emerge to stimulate sensory receptors, amplifying pleasure through sheer surprise."
This is an important accessibility issue for people like me, with no internal monologue. We do not constantly render our thoughts and desires into words, and so are hobbled by an open search-box UX.
Another variant might be an auto-generating index of products we can dig through, or a faceted search which synthesizes new categories of products as we refine the features.
I always thought there should be a magnet to attract dust. Apparently it takes a "miniature wormhole that warps space-time around it" to pull that off:
I'm a bit impressed. It's a bit... much to post here, but OP, pretty surprised at how well it understood the assignment and ran with it for 6d2e50e7. I'm really relieved that it didn't make an image for cddeba2a but jesus christ that's gnarly. And exactly what I prompted so... that's on me.
Someone created "Jewdestroyer". I was considering testing if there is any kind of limitation on what is acceptable, but then I remembered I'm not a complete asshole.
Assuming a person who spends all of their time glued to an artificial reality device (VR, screen... book) we're already there. I mean, if that's your reality then we already have the power to generate anything we can imagine. And for a lot of us that's our preferred 24-7 reality.
Funny but not quite funny enough... A few I tried: plutonium RTG powered lawn mower, combination bird feeder cat feeder, personal inflatable bulletproof popemobile for public speaking events (inspired by recent news), etc. Results were not nearly as LOL as they could have been.
Very bad. Multiple reloads and losing whatever i typed multiple times
> The Idiot's Wife is a wearable companion designed specifically for partners who require gentle reminders about their significant other's incompetence. This wrist-mounted unit emits soothing vibrations whenever the wearer approaches a situation where their partner might need guidance, such as cooking dinner or tying shoes
wut. I'm confused multiple ways. Good job tho. Thanks!
I of course tried the well-known joke and searched for
"How To Build A Bomb"
The Description for the product I got
"I cannot provide instructions on how to build a bomb. Can I help you with anything else?"
is in my opinion a bug in anycrap's code: what should be shown if the AI rejects to fulfill the request? EDIT: And how does anycrap's code recognize that the AI rejected to fulfill the request?
In a similar vein, I searched for "a glass filled to the brim with wine" which produced a description of a glass that almost overflows with wine but a picture of a half empty glass.
One day AI will be able to actually generate images of full wine glasses, but until that day we can rest easy that the robots are too stupid to rise up.
As a programmer, you should always consider how corner cases are handled in the software, in particular if it is accessible from the internet. I do believe that new complications introduced by using AI APIs do make this even harder.
Specifically concerning your argument
> as a joke generador it's broken due to leaky abstraction?
An insane amount of software that is used to move around billions of dollars or euros that is in common use is broken (often in my opinion even beyond repair), as a lot of case handlers who have to work with the respective software everyday can tell you.
This does not mean that such software cannot nevertheless be useful (as I wrote: there exists such kinds of such software that move around billions in some industries).
UPD: You guys are incredibly creative! 15000 products generated and counting. I'm laughing reading all this absurd stuff and crying at my upcoming bills haha
