I offer up these domains to my fellow HNers, to utilize in the pursuit of billion dollar dreams.

#23So far the only ones it has generated for me resembling English are quite NSFW
Corkmonger.com is my favourite.
Rothole.com another one.

#24For the curious, there's a number of other helpful domain name generators https://www.saashub.com/domainsfortherestofus-alternatives . They are not AI generated but rather free names with suitable prefixes or suffixes.

It’s considered courteous to disclose any affiliations you have, when self promoting.

#26Very curious to hear about the training set for these. If I had to guess, someone scraped GoDaddy/Google Domains/Namecheap for the "premium domains" that are being squatted on and then trained a language model on that corpus. Hopefully the OP can provide details!

#27Some years ago I wrote a proof-of-concept chrome extension for "unlocking" domain names. https://github.com/amoffat/hash-n-slash The basic idea was that we should be able to use anything as a routable domain name, and not just limit it to short words or phrases.
This is super neat but also sorta defeats the whole purpose of domain names, which is to have memorable names that point to hard to remember IP addresses. This creates impossible to remember hashes that point to difficult to remember IP addresses. This is essentially content addressing + location addressing. If you're not familiar, IPFS does content addressing in a really cool way. https://ipfs.io/
To be fair, I've never had a problem remembering IP(v4) addresses, much like with phone numbers and (physical) addresses. The real advantages of using domain names is that it associates a word or phrase with the site, can remain the same while the IP changes, and also allows for virtual hosting.
Imagine a world in which the Internet grew and commercialised before DNS ever appeared --- we may have ended up with IPs being as common knowledge as phone numbers.

#28I wish there was a way to specify a prefix or suffix.

But what's preventing squatters from squatting all the valuable hashes? eg. pizza.com is valuable, so with the same logic you can also squat hash(pizza).
