AI websites that design themselves

Is this an art project or self-parody? The site is completely broken and unusable in Chrome.

Came here to comment specifically about that. I thought surely this was a joke.

Looks fine here. They have videos in the background, so perhaps they are blocked on your end.

The videos aren't the issue (they're loading fine), its that entire site's css seems to fail in Chrome.

Also the font they are serving from AWS throws a failed to load error.

The layout issue was due to interactions with Adblock Plus or other ad-blocking software, and has been fixed. Thanks!

What do you find broken?

I'm on chrome too, and the only outrageous thing I see is the rectangles that line the middle of the page, which don't seem to serve any real purpose...

Overall, I think "make img into useful background for a full-width div" is a useful feature but I won't pay $8/mo for it.

If it meant not having to crop, adjust color & exposure on product photos it would be worth more than $8/month for a lot of ecommerce sites. Drop in raw image files, a price and product description and get a well designed storefront? Sold.

AdBlock for Chrome completely destroys the layout. If I disable it for the page, it looks fine.

Had that same hypothesis, works great in Chrome for me; installed adblock, it explodes.

Using chrome, and it seems to fit perfectly really.

I think this is also a great idea especially because we use AI for way to less nowadays compared to what we actually should have learned about AI the last 50 years.

I thought the site was a self-referencing example, although comically bad. The price tag made me realize this wasn't just a fun experiment like I wanted it to be...

It seems to work fine in Firefox but it is horribly broken in chrome as you said. They have a form for entering a CC number so my thought is this may in fact be real.
