Bah, the user interface and design is horrible to navigate in, which just made me sad. Try to paginate, music stops etc. If you created this, spend some more effort in user testing before sharing if you want users to have a good experience. My 2 cents.

Ngl the weird UI bugs made me think it must be made by AI, either that or the developer has very skewed frontend skills where gradients are fancy but sliders & interactions are broken.

Yeah, this is LLM like 99%. Still neat, but ffs just go through a few more testing cycles with it before going live.

I am actually going to guess that this is in fact unfortunately not an LLM. I have been made a few audio webpages and don’t think a lot of these mistakes would have been made, even though the model can’t hear :^)

look at inspect source. the comments like

    <!-- EXACT setup from working simple-test.html -->

    <!-- Chiptune3 now loaded via Vite build system -->

are pretty stark llmisms. also the random emojis in front of the duplicate and triplicate "Browse Music" links, the corny tagline in the footer, yeah nah. if this was made by human hands, it could only have been as elaborate satire. bad/inexperienced human code does not look like this.

All LLM-kind would be vastly improved if the words "exact" and "brilliant" were nerfed to hell in their pre-training weights or even just removed from their training distributions entirely. Virtually nothing outside of mathematics is "exact", and virtually nothing outside of colors should be described as "brilliant".

Also basic functionality not working paired with awkward and vaguely nonsensical phrasing - search, show all, "Showing tracks from all groups.", queue all -> "No songs found in this group." And that paired with some otherwise relatively sophisticated techniques involved in the basic functionality.

LLMs are on occasion like a kid that can do a standing double backward somersault, but can't walk. It's the same tell you'll have in discussions online. Somebody will spew out extremely esoteric (and accurate) knowledge/concepts, but then demonstrate a complete misunderstanding (or lack of knowledge) of basic concepts in the exact same domain.

invest 20 more minutes?

nah, that's an entire 10 episode rewatch if this libertine vibe coder's agentic engineering pipeline holds! ... shit, mostly ads, if only the dude went through a few more testing cycles ... nah, that's enough time for some auto-research into the psycho-linguistic consequences of getting The Trump voted for president after the whitest black presidency in the history of the world, forever!

100%. Whoever did this UI thing, first, would get rich, if Anthropic et al. had to pay for the use of his border-radius, gradient and paddings

Shipping a ui like this is downright disrespectful for users here. it makes zero sense.

The Dunning-Kruger effect will grow with AI adoption.

There's nothing like that here. Just actually try to use it and you're like 'oh, this doesn't really work.. at all.' It's more like LLMs enabling extremely lazy people to put out something that ostensibly requires a lot of work, but was probably about 10 minutes of prompting and can't be bothered to do 5 minutes of testing.

It's curious to think about the impact this is going to have on large software companies that increasingly seem happy to ship slop. LLMs are going to accelerate slop production by orders of magnitude, but that also is going to proportionally accelerate the destruction of one's own brand.

Also a missed opportunity for some of that sweet vanilla html paired with the keygen and crack ansi splash screens

Also why is there no big "Play" button? I have to click a bunch to even hear an example.

it screems vibecoding without the slightest idea what they doing.

> if you created this

Did not. https://keygenmusic.tk/ was better. Makes me wonder if slop will eventually lead to curation or if the canonical bests will continue to be buried in it.
