Ask HN: Who's using AI to build non-AI products?

3•leonagano•9h ago

I’m using ai to build a website where founders meet each other in real life.

No ai embedded in the product at all.

Not answering your question or building anything, but what your'e making sounds like what I'm looking for!

I've been experimenting with a concept called Propheciple — a decentralized, cryptic platform for exploring new ideas in the evolving economy. Would love feedback or thoughts on this direction:

I'm a magazine journalist who's usually working on multiple stories at once. I collect a lot of tabs.

So the other day I used Claude to make a browser extension that saves all in an active window to the specified "Writing Project" so I can easily open/close them all as needed.

Basically, a more streamlined bookmark system.
