What it does

Vista is "Google Earth" for the past. 🌍⏳ Turn any map coordinate into a photorealistic window to history. Just pick a spot and a year, from Ancient Rome to 1990s NYC, and Vista reconstructs the scene with naked-eye realism. No sepia filters, just the raw, unfiltered past. Stop imagining history. Step inside it. 🚪👈

Explore historical events on a world map and travel through time with AI-generated historical images. The world's first Temporal Street View.

    I built a fun AI tour guide into Google Street View2025 · streetwhip.com · ▲8

    I love culture + travel, and one of my favorite pastimes is dropping into random streets on Google Street View. I just LOVE getting a tiny snippet into how people live, the architecture, and discovering hidden corners of places I'll probably never visit. I'm kinda weird like that. When AI came along, I started asking it to explain what I was looking at - and I learned a ton. I couldn't stop using this combo. So I built Streetwhip. It's kinda like reverse Geoguessr - instead of guessing where you are, you get educated about places as if you had a smart local guide with you. What used to be…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
