As an aside: I lack the vocabulary, but man those interactive "stats" cards scream LLM-written to me. No problem with it, necessarily, just something about that style seems to raise a flag in my mind.
- tyleo 2mo agoPart of it is the clash with the pages UI. Dark black cards in the middle of a light theme.
- decimalenough 2mo agoThe entire houseofsaud.com site appears to be LLM-generated, I wouldn't trust a single thing it says.
- csomar 2mo agoI wouldn't trust a single thing it says even if it was human-generated.
- Neil44 2mo agoUsed for translation maybe? I tried to scan to see which plugins, but it had two responses for me, and the second one was 'off'
- culi 2mo agoDefinitely more than translation. This page has every AI UI trope under the sun. The titles on the main page also all seem very AI-speak
- meshweaver 2mo agoThey are certainly LLM-generated. I'm sure it's been done, but I would love to see a comprehensive look into what it is exactly that makes a UI seem LLM-generated. From what I can tell, the issues are: Fonts are too small, secondary fonts have terrible contrast with their backgrounds, information is too dense/not enough white space, overuse of blinking/glowing status dots, overuse of bordered elements, and overuse of accented elements. I am surely forgetting some other issues. I'm not sure why there seems to be a consistent set of design mistakes that LLMs tend toward.
- KronisLV 2mo ago> I'm not sure why there seems to be a consistent set of design mistakes that LLMs tend toward. Probably something to do with the training data and how it’s weighted. It’s the same how the writing is essentially full of overused phrases, the AI slop feel.
- duskdozer 2mo agoI'm not sure I would consider it too dense. If anything I think they tend to be too sparse, although this could just be that they're often used for marketing type sites, which seem to want to make you scroll and click a lot for anything anyway, even if you have the screen space. The status dots are a part of animations in general, which they overuse, especially things like transform/scale on hover and hover effects on many many elements. I think it's not simply borders but contrasting-color borders often with box shadows.
- nostrademons 2mo agoLack of visual hierarchy. Lots of use of bold text to make numbers stand out, without bolding the corresponding labels. Reliance on heavily-saturated primary colors. Limited attention paid to alignment. LLMs in general are pretty terrible at spatial arrangement. You should see some of the architects' critiques of AI-generated floorplans that are on YouTube; the LLM generates a layout that is just nuts. I've found them largely useless at putting together UI mocks; Figma or Photoshop is still way easier to work with if you just want to cut up UI elements and rearrange them.
- hagen8 2mo agoThis is the claude code frontend-skill.
- cartermatic 2mo agoThey're definitely Claude generated. People at my last company loved to generate pages & stat cards with Claude and they all had this exact same style.
- applfanboysbgon 2mo agoThe "Conflict Pulse" status dot is really the shit cherry on top.
- gs17 2mo agoMy annoyance is that it's hard to figure out if it's actually up-to-date or not. If you click "Live conflict timeline →" it brings you to a collection of pages not updated since April (and at different points in April, oddly). The date count seems right, the oil price might have been correct when it was published but isn't "live" despite being labeled that way.
