I don't think I'd clock the ramen one as AI, if not for the main image being AI generated.
Two words, two more. Good thing. Good thing. Buy it. Buy it. Feel good. seems AI to me. Humans were doing marketing slop this way before AI but it doesn't really matter if the slop is AI or human.

Wasn't one of the main original points of LLMs to be creative? To create stories, creative writing?
It wasn't the point, but early LLMs would make mistakes so often that writing fiction full of hilarious nonsense was one of the only applications. Now that they make mistakes less often, you need some other source of high-entropy randomness to reinject creativity into the story.
If you could access the current models as base models I guess you'd still get very interesting hilarious stuff.

I did wonder which one to put that under. It might be it own category of “made by AI company”, but I also think both Anthropic and OpenAI have been vocal about how their codex and Claude code is 100% AI generated But how is AI outputing sparkle emoji or orange accents colors interacting with AI? Unless you also classify AI output as a form of interacting with AI
The sparkle emoji has become an indicator for "this is an AI feature, click here to do AI things". I have even used it. The beige UI with orange accents probably refers to the design guidelines of Anthropic, Mistral, Microsoft AI and a bunch of other companies. They all try to use soft, non-threatening colours, and for some reason those two are a popular choice.
Ahahaha, like this? https://monosnap.ai/file/TzFL6H6fRMfsv1G8v0mbKH2hI1kL8e
This is an HN userstyle css that I had Claude help me with. No serifs though.
> There are other aesthetics my brain associates with AI, like beige/cream colors, orange accents, and serif typefaces Something to consider regarding the narrow space AI-created designs align on: LLMs are trained to write consistent code. This makes sense for something like a billing or a backend function - you want that code to be consistent. The problem though is that LLMs write code to represent designs as well,…
I don't think these look "bad" exactly, but they do look like AI, and I don't think that's just because I know they are.
Another AI-ism is the use of the word "grain" in technical contexts. I'm confident the OP is human-written, but everything in my AI-supported codebase is about grains, seams, tracer bullets, and load-bearing components now. I'd barely heard some of these words before, and now they're everywhere. It's like everyone suddenly has a friend who speaks in the same idiosyncratic way, and we're all picking up their vocal sti…
This has been a growing problem with humans for a while. Go back ten years and use "guardrails" or "top of mind" in a conversation and you'll get baffled looks. For whatever reason the fad based enthusiasm for semi jargon is a widespread affliction. In the english speaking world the political sides are even becoming unsubtly linguistically distinct. You can tell which way someone votes by their choice of vocabulary.
Good UX abstractions out perform bad ones, which means they endure, are copied, and eventually become the implied standard UX… some examples of this are; the hamburger menu, tiny icons and auto-scroll for streaming text
Personally, I think they make it easier to read.
