Show HN: Daily image location guessing agains AIhttps://mediaguesser.com/human-vs-ai

Every day, I let all frontier AI models play five rounds of an image location guess game. Try it out how you perform against the AI. I recently released my browser image location game, a hobby project where you’re get random images from sources like Wikimedia Commons and have to guess the image’s location. There are an incredible number of images with rich metadata on Wikimedia Commons, most of them depict trivial but interesting places or events. My goal was to make this online catalog playable and to make it easier to discover new places and Wikipedia articles. I realize I’m certainly…

Show HN: Real Design Benchmark – can you tell AI designs from real products?https://www.realdesignbenchmark.com

Hi HN, I'm Adam Ginzberg, one of the cofounders of Subframe, a code-first design tool. One of the things I'm really curious about is understanding LLM performance on subjective domains like design. As an experiment I built this game which presents two designs of the same screen, one of which was generated by AI. First you pick which one you like better and then which one you think was made by AI. Most design work happens in an existing product, so we set up this game to test that. As context, the AI gets 4 screenshots from the existing product, the product's icons + fonts, and a written brief…

I also have sons who love coding in various languages so I wanted to build something that helped people who are learning to code transition from stuff like scratch. Give it a go, see what you think.

It runs in the browser with no install, built with React and Three.js via React Three Fiber.

So, as many others have done recently, I took a shot at using Opus 5.5 to help me build my dream Git GUI app. I did take massive inspiration from GitKraken (the look and feel is a close match since it's what I feel comfortable with) but everything is built from scratch.
