Show HN: Good AI Task – a tool for asking AI what it can and can't do

https://goodaitask.com
4•jmt710•1h ago
Describe a task, and AI will give you a breakdown of whether it can do your task well, poorly, or somewhere in between. I built it mostly because I kept getting asked "what is AI even good for" and fumbling the answer.

The most fun use is testing it on things you already know it can't do and seeing how it explains why it can't be done.

This is interesting. I'm curious how you calibrate it. I've found that sometimes AI is very confident about being able to do something (or not do something), and I've had to pick its response apart a bit to see what the real answer is. Are you getting accurate results with one pass?
