Cool! I like the website theme picker
neural_thing•4mo ago
Thank you - I don't think I explicitly state this anywhere on the website - but all the different themes were made by Claude Code with Dreamtap providing different sources of inspiration - I wasn't involved in designing them at all.

Notably, GPT-5-Codex is significantly worse at this, it has a much stronger drive to make one specific style of website.

burgerquizz•4mo ago
I found Claude got to be pretty bad at css, and got better results with codex. how did you prompt cc for getting better results?
neural_thing•4mo ago
The inspirations help, you also need to ask Claude to take it to the next level, or do a very good job.

In terms of polish, I just tell it that Steve Jobs will review the final result, that seems to make it work a lot harder.

ASalazarMX•4mo ago
Your website gave me a vibe coded impression, but I thought I was being overly paranoid. I'm glad you confirmed it, it seems the clues that give that feeling have some grounds in reality.

It's very interesting how current IAs seems to generate simplistic websites with similar quirks on the first iteration. I guess it's intentional since simple is a good start point.

spogbiper•4mo ago
the first theme i got was some comic sans neon hellscape and until i realized i could re-roll, i had serious doubts about this project lol
nxpnsv•4mo ago
I remember that once there was a site that added random words to your google search to unbubble you / make your results more interesting, this feels similar. Anybody remeber that thing?

I'In the interest of escaping mode collapse, I've recently developed a fascination with the text/base models.

I haven't tested them much, but I did make a tiny GUI for talking to OpenAI's legacy Davinci-002. It's a completion model, so you prompt it by giving it a piece of text and it continues it in the same style. (If you ask it a question, it's likely to just respond with a question.)

https://jsfiddle.net/yxaL5z3c/

I've been wondering if it would be possible to create a chat like experience on top of a model like this, but the trick is that the data has to be formatted similar to what it's seen in the training. e.g. when I used "user:" and "assistant:" then it defaulted to making it sound like AI, because that was what the context implied. I tried "John" and "Steve", which worked better...

bigwheels•4mo ago
Cool idea. Any chance this will be open sourced?
neural_thing•4mo ago
Yeah, it's on my to do list, need to figure out license, clean up code, write a readme, etc. Just wanted to see if anyone needed this at all first
nacs•4mo ago
Interesting idea.

The MCP tool itself seems to be pretty simple:

- The MCP server makes a tool available called 'get_inspirations' ("Get sources of inspiration. Always use this when working on creative tasks - call this tool before anything else.")

- When you call get_inspirations() with "low" as the parameter, it returns strings like this:

  Recently, you've been inspired by the following: Miss Van, Stem.

  Recently, you've been inspired by the following: Mass-energy equivalence, Jonas Salk.
etc

- 'High' inspiration returns strings like this (more keywords):

  Recently, you've been inspired by the following: Charles Babbage, Beethoven Moonlight Sonata, Eagles Take It Easy, Blue Spruce.

  Recently, you've been inspired by the following: Missy Elliott Supa Dupa Fly, Design Patterns, Flowey, Titanic.
etc.

Simple tool. Seems adding a few keywords for 'inspirations' is what makes the LLMs generate more varied text.

Are the results substantially different from what you can get by increasing the temperature?
