Are LLM’s capable of time travel because it looks it also created all these cookie cutter websites in 2013

Your comment makes me wonder. Probably lots of 2013 websites in the training data.

Also makes me wonder... will self-driving car training data be less and less based on human driving, and more based on how all the other self-driving cars behave?

Or will they randomly drive 10mph under the speed limit, with the turn signal left pm for 10 miles, because an email was received?
The only self-driving car out there imitating humans is the Tesla one... and you can check how well it's doing.

Cars have a clear goal that one can test for.

model to model is a pretty normal training method right now, but can result in this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_collapse
All modern show hn / hn 2025 batch SaaS sites also look exactly alike, and people say often 'i really like your design! What design? Its just every framer.com template and the dashboard like every SaaS starter out there. Fine with me, I like uniformity but let's not act as if now is different than 2013.
It reminded me of every web dev who was too lazy to design their own portfolio page and just used the same template every other person.
Precisely. I don't know why the creator of this site is trashing LLMs and not the generic slop the LLMs were trained on to begin with.
