I did wonder which one to put that under. It might be it own category of “made by AI company”, but I also think both Anthropic and OpenAI have been vocal about how their codex and Claude code is 100% AI generated

But how is AI outputing sparkle emoji or orange accents colors interacting with AI? Unless you also classify AI output as a form of interacting with AI

The sparkle emoji has become an indicator for "this is an AI feature, click here to do AI things". I have even used it.

The beige UI with orange accents probably refers to the design guidelines of Anthropic, Mistral, Microsoft AI and a bunch of other companies. They all try to use soft, non-threatening colours, and for some reason those two are a popular choice.

Huh, ok. I disagree. Sparkle emoji and beige cream or orange accents every where is definitely AI output, not some “AI features here”. I don’t even see sparkle emoji on any AI websites or “features”. It’s only in sloppy output and most people will tell you to remove it because it screams slop too much.

Here are just a few examples I found in a couple of minutes:

- https://copilot.cloud.microsoft/

- Literally the Gemini logo

I’m tempted to add to this list, but Sparkle emoji has so clearly become a ubiquitous symbol for “this feature is enhanced by AI”, I’m surprised at the push back from the other commenter.

I’ve never seen or heard anyone mention sparkle emoji as a tell-tail sign of AI generated content, in the way that you hear about em-dash for example.

But I have seen the icon used in just about every website/app that wants to let you know they are using “AI” in some form or another.
