The AI feature seems to just generate random icons unrelating to the input.

      > I built 17 startups in 2 years. That's phrased like a brag, but I'm not sure what's so cool about making 17 failed businesses in 2 years. Working through failure can lead to success, yes, but simply failing many times over does not mean you'll automatically succeed at one point.

        And yet... not trying (and often failing) will pretty much guarantee no success at all. It's a tough nut to crack.

  Not OP but I entered “real estate” and got an ear with hearing aid, a terminal, a bug with a play button, and a bowl of soup with steam.

  I entered "bakery" and got dice, a bug, and something I can't recognize
- themanmaran 3y ago
  Same. Entered "database transforms" and got calendar icons.
- CivBase 3y ago
  I tried "Dark logo for a dice game" and I got H4, clouds, and the icon for looping the same song over and over.

  I entered “cursor” and it gave me a clipboard

  Literally the placeholder text (the ice-cream shop) doesn't produce any sensible results. Shipped too fast I guess ._.

  I did a quick test for a logo and the answer seemed more random than related: https://imgur.com/a/a93s0t5 https://imgur.com/a/a93s0t5

Same. I tried a ton of things such as "Robot", "Banana", "Cheese", "Flower", etc.. and got things that were completely random.

with a domain like shipfa.st, makes me think of the old saying "good, cheap, fast" pick two. since the thing is free and fast, good got left out. pretty appropriate for the results being demonstrated in the comments. i'd be embarrassed if I made such a thing, and there's no way i'd show it off to someone else. this feels like someone took a "learn how to use AI in 10 days" and released the first project they worked on. i read "teach yourself PHP in 10 days" in 1999 over a weekend, and was banging out a website with a database in no time. i'd never ever ever show the code written then to anyone, but at least it did what was advertised on the box.

  Look past the embarrassment - if this poster gets just a handful of people to register for "shipfast" service, it's well worth the time it took to build and promote this. Those people will likely buy other stuff from the OP as well. Loads of people on HN could likely build something 'better' by some metric, but of those, how many would still have the nerve to post it in public? I'm not sure I would. Although I've got something I'm planning to post to show HN sometime soon, my default mode is telling me not to post - someone might post something negative, and I'll be embarrassed! FWIW, the OP isn't sharing the code, and you wouldn't have needed to show your original 1999 PHP code; just share the built service with folks. That's all most folks care about - the utility/value. That said, there's nothing (yet?) compelling about this service that I've not seen done before. But it might be new/novel to some.

That's all most folks care about - the utility/value. right, but that's why i followed up with "at least it did what was advertised on the box". this product is so bad at making "logos" that it teeters on the verge of not doing what's advertised on the box
