    Looking at the frontend design examples; why do these models seem to love the &quot;01 - UPPERCASE TEXT&quot; motif. It&#x27;s everywhere now (see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;try.cloudflare.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;try.cloudflare.com&#x2F;, which has &#x27;01 · QUICK TUNNELS&#x27;, but no &quot;02&quot; anywhere).

      Nice catch!

      My guess is that by function they break down frontend sections or components into pieces and I believe document things for themselves on some level, or purposely are verbose in this way. It is probably also shaped by users and existing web patterns. They probably get reinforced by models the more common they become.

      The extraneous small-caps labels are one of the main idiosyncrasies of AI generated markup. I wonder how much of this is a &quot;scaffolding&quot; technique to help the model build stable designs. But was it reinforced in RLHF or an emergent behavior of the models?

      Yep, and what&#x27;s even more interesting is it&#x27;s always monospace font, with increased `letter-spacing` CSS attribute

        Old design trend for &#x27;futuristic&#x27; interfaces (bonus points if they use Futura).
