Claude, change the “Add to Cart” button to blue

If you interact with Claude like this and ignore legitimate issues it flags, no wonder you have a bad experience.

You can hate AI all you want, but this is because of a bad design system, not because of a bad LLM.

I don't get the joke... maybe because I'm using Codex?

This is not a game. Choosing from wrong answers only is not a game.

This is the smoking gun.

Yes, and it's mine!

This is so good at replicating the experience of frustration, then relief when it finally does what you asked it to do in the first place!

I only lasted two turns before I had to close the tab. I can't stand anthropic models.

Mine immediately did it correctly?

This spiked my blood pressure. Well done

A Bot & Costello

This is elite satire

I think I have PTSD after that.

This is pure genius. No notes

Oh god, it's so painfully accurate.

This felt very late-90s net art. Stressful but nicely done satire.

I wanted to see what the various phrases in the "slot machine" are. Surprised it doesn't have "LOAD BEARING" in there somewhere:

Caveats:

• ONE HONEST CAVEAT

• ONE THING WORTH STATING PRECISELY

• ONE THING WORTH FLAGGING

• WORTH NAMING

• WORTH STATING PLAINLY

• I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE THIS IMPLICIT

• I'D BE DOING YOU A DISSERVICE

• I DON'T WANT TO BURY THIS

• BETTER NOW THAN LATER

• ONE HONEST TRADEOFF

• I DON'T WANT TO PAPER OVER THIS

• ONE SMALL HOUSEKEEPING ITEM

• THE HONEST PART IS SIMPLER

Pushbacks:

• FAIR PUSHBACK

• FAIR HIT

• THAT'S ON ME

• YOU'RE RIGHT ABOUT THAT

• YOU'RE RIGHT

• YOUR INSTINCT IS RIGHT

• FAIR, AND MORE SPECIFIC THAN IT SOUNDS

• RIGHT, FOR A REASON WORTH NAMING

• I'M NOT GOING TO DEFEND THAT

• YOU'RE RIGHT TO PUSH BACK

Reframes:

• LET ME BE PRECISE

• THE SHARPER DISTINCTION

• THE PART THAT MATTERS

• THE USEFUL PART IS NARROWER

• LESS X THAN Y

• VISIBLE ISSUE / UNDERLYING ISSUE

• THOSE ARE DIFFERENT CLAIMS

Oh dear - this explains why people have bad experience with ai. The prompts in the game are terrible.

The user was providing no context, they had no ability to give the model background or context. A simple why would have prevented 95% of these side quests. “Im trying to increase the relative visibility of the add to cart action on the page. Can we please change it to blue without changing any other buttons. /effort low. Let me know if you have questions and before editing anything tell me what you are going to do”

it gave me headache in 2 turns, just like opus 5 !

delightful user experience 10/10

I bet if you used the real Opus 5 it could one shot this.

Amusing, but do people actually prompt in the style of any of the options given? All this for what is ultimately a PEBCAK error.

glad to see I'm not the only one... anthropic needs to support my anger management treatment

It's funny but unrealistic as Claude does a pretty good job at only changing what is required these days with the 5 tier models like Opus 5 or Fable.

I am self delusional enough to think I could have gotten a blue button if I could have typed the prompt. But scared enough to realize I’ve lived this and spent months refactoring these exact problems.

Hold on let me go commit code without reviewing.

is this using my subscription

what a interesting news!

Nails the Claude dialect. Technical nonsense like:

> I'm collapsing this back to the rendered outcome:

And intermixed with SaaS product page idioms from a brain-damaged marketer like:

> No broader cleanup.

> No further architecture work.

> Just the button.

Aside from the patterns everyone knows like em-dashes, "its not X, it's Y", etc. I think the key features of claude diction is it sounds like a junior engineer over their skies who is trying to make up for that with extra verbiage mixed with extremely grating SaaS marketing-ese.

This is gold, thanks for the giggles! I think it was designed that way to burn tokens.

Even funnier is all the ways people are malding about this in the thread.

This does not match reality at all, speaking as the #1 user on agent hours per clauderank.com

Funny game.

Do people really prompt AI like this? Multiple times the choice was either to yell at the agent, or ask it why it did something, neither of which are very fruitful lines to go down if you know what you're doing

Lord this triggered my eye twitch

Not really my experience with Claude, and the prompts are not how I would phrase them, but still pretty damn funny: I especially loved the slot-machine-style picker for LLM-isms.

Am I the only one whose experience doesn't match this?

My gripe with Claude is that while investigating how to do this it will report 200 other incidental findings which I overlooked and I realize those are broken too and need urgent fixing, derailing me, not it.

You didn't say please or thank you.

Thank you for creating this. Just thank you

Just when I came back to my pc and was thinking "I hate this world were everyone talks about AI like fanatics" this made me a little bit happy, especially the unhingend all caps options towards the end

This is kind of funny but with tears (not off joy). I stopped playing because it made me angry

Here come all the totally organic "wow, I guess I better switch to OpenAI" comments.

PTSD 9000.. I miss the old days, less load bearing BS and more in the zone coding..

Thanks, I hate it.

now add a source tab and lets see, how many ppl. will fix it themselves and how many turns it needs.

now THAT is a load-bearing simulation
