Is AI Dumber Today? An index of AI model experience from user's opinion
Track how AI models feel in everyday use through public community feedback, 7-day experience scores and trends. This is not a capability benchmark.
Is AI Dumber Today? An index of AI model experience from user's opinion launched on August 14, 2026 with 17 votes, #789 of 23,274 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches.
In plain words
Is AI Dumber Today tracks how AI language models perform in real-world use by collecting community feedback and ratings. The platform aggregates seven-day experience scores and trend data from power users who document model behavior, output quality, and issues like hallucinations. Rather than measuring technical capabilities, it captures subjective user experiences with different AI models and versions, helping people understand how various systems actually feel in everyday applications.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
