What would you invent?

Mar 8, 2021 7:42 PM

You are given the ability to will an invention into existence, but it can't be any significant benefit to humanity, just something fun. What do you invent?

Anything that solves a social, economic, or environmental problem is out. No energy sources, cures, etc...

It doesn't have to be useless. For example, an affordable laundry folding machine is fine. It's a great time saver, but no remarkable benefit to the species.

I'm putting my choice in a comment.

I'd invent a declutterer. A machine that you point at a drawer, box, room and it instantly boxes up all objects not used in the past X years

The time frame would be adjustable and you could include optional filters to ensure photos didn't get purged, etc.

A real life mute button. Yappy dog at 3am? Mute. Tapdancing meth head upstairs? Mute. Politician talking about anything? Mute!!

How about an "always mute this sound" feature. For example, never hear car alarms ever again.

Can you control it so you hear your own car alarm though?

I'd invent a dream recorder. Records what you "see and hear" in a dream and turns it into a movie you can watch.

You'd be so disappointed with the content and duration.

Quite possibly. But I'm curious

I want a shower that only takes a few seconds and doesn’t get you wet. Like, pass through this doorway and be clean! I’m so lazy.
