    Is it only me or do others also find LLM generated websites so off-putting?

      Same. I can’t really put my finger on what exactly is turning me off though. I mean, apart from the obvious AI-generated text.

        It's overly automated and repetitive in its styling. Humans make odd stray adjustments to styling manually. LLMs build pages very efficiently. Unless you're very anal-retentive when building a site, there's going to be some distinct flair that isn't just a repeating segment.

        It's like it was made by the world's most anal-retentive Wordpress theme builder. They went over it a thousand times until it was perfectly optimized, no distinguishing marks, no stray tiny misalignments, no single-use stylings.
