look at inspect source. the comments like

    <!-- EXACT setup from working simple-test.html -->

    <!-- Chiptune3 now loaded via Vite build system -->
are pretty stark llmisms. also the random emojis in front of the duplicate and triplicate "Browse Music" links, the corny tagline in the footer, yeah nah. if this was made by human hands, it could only have been as elaborate satire. bad/inexperienced human code does not look like this.

All LLM-kind would be vastly improved if the words "exact" and "brilliant" were nerfed to hell in their pre-training weights or even just removed from their training distributions entirely. Virtually nothing outside of mathematics is "exact", and virtually nothing outside of colors should be described as "brilliant".

Also basic functionality not working paired with awkward and vaguely nonsensical phrasing - search, show all, "Showing tracks from all groups.", queue all -> "No songs found in this group." And that paired with some otherwise relatively sophisticated techniques involved in the basic functionality.

LLMs are on occasion like a kid that can do a standing double backward somersault, but can't walk. It's the same tell you'll have in discussions online. Somebody will spew out extremely esoteric (and accurate) knowledge/concepts, but then demonstrate a complete misunderstanding (or lack of knowledge) of basic concepts in the exact same domain.
