What can't your AI do — yet?

CantYet keeps track of things you wanted an AI to do but couldn't. Log them from inside your assistant, keep them private, and publish the ones worth solving — until someone, or the next model release, closes them.

Anatomy of a Yet

Four fields, enforced. Rants don't fit the template — records do.

Can't keep slide layouts when translating a deck

What I wanted
Translate a 32-slide sales deck from Japanese to English without changing any layout, spacing, or object positions.
What I tried
Uploaded the .pptx and prompted: translate all text to English, keep every layout identical. Also tried per-slide translation and pasting text boxes individually.
What happened
Text boxes overflowed and reflowed on 11 slides; two diagrams lost their labels entirely. Manual fixing took longer than translating by hand.
