Show HN: It Was Never You
itwasneveryou.app · Read Story HN original
Hi HN! I made my first iOS app - users can swap out an ex or friend for someone else in their photo library.
I did this as a bit of a lark. I hope you find it entertaining, at least. At its most serious, it’s a Black Mirror-esque note on the future we’re enabling in the AI age. It’s not an app I’d ever use or recommend people use.
I suppose that’s the question I’m asking myself, and now you, with this - while I intentionally built something I wouldn’t want to see in the world, how are you dealing with the feeling that software you build is or isn’t making the world a better place?
What a weird time to be alive!

Not to be too critical, but this appears to go beyond just a satirical PoC.
It’s an art project - a provocation. Beyond a PoC is flattery it truly doesn’t deserve imo
do you have more apps like that? satirical-type apps?
