Bing's AI made me a homepage!

« on: February 14, 2023 @948.69 »

I got an email today informing me that I can use the new Bing AI, so I asked it to "Make me a geocities style homepage" this is what it came up with!

I think the broken images and air horn are a nice touch.. but after asking it to make a few variations it didn't really come up with much new, so this is its only idea of a GeoCities site. Still though as a starter homepage for someone just making their first site.. its kina a good start! The MelonLand link is a nice touch

Here is the code!

Code

<html>
<head>
  <title>My Geocities Style Website</title>
  <style>
	body {
	  background-color: black;
	  color: lime;
	  font-family: "Comic Sans MS", cursive, sans-serif;
	}
	h1 {
	  text-align: center;
	  font-size: 48px;
	  text-shadow: 2px 2px 4px yellow;
	  animation: rainbow 2s infinite;
	}
	p {
	  text-align: justify;
	  margin: 20px;
	}
	a {
	  color: cyan;
	  text-decoration: none;
	}
	a:hover {
	  color: magenta;
	  text-decoration: underline;
	}
	marquee {
	  font-size: 24px;
	  font-weight: bold;
	}
	@keyframes rainbow {
	  0% {color: red;}
	  20% {color: orange;}
	  40% {color: yellow;}
	  60% {color: green;}
	  80% {color: blue;}
	  100% {color: purple;}
	}
  </style>
  <script>
	function playSound() {
	  var audio = new Audio("https://www.myinstants.com/media/sounds/airhorn.mp3");
	  audio.play();
	}
  </script>
</head>

I asked it to give me a "cool 90s username" and it came up with "SpookySk8rGrl" so then I asked it to "Make a virtual world for SpookySk8rGrl" - it seems to be trying to write a geocities style webpage with a built in game skating around with ghosts. The game does not work, its got a few big errors I can spot right away.. but still an impressive attempt! Maybe I'll be replaced sooner than expected!

Quote

Welcome to SpookySk8rGrl's Virtual World!

Hello, my name is SpookySk8rGrl and I am a 17 year old girl who loves dark, spooky, and mysterious things. I made this virtual world to have some fun and challenge myself. I hope you like it and find it scary. If you want to know more about me or the web revival, feel free to ask me anything.

Here is the virtual world I created. Use the up and down arrow keys to control the skater and avoid the ghosts. Collect the pumpkins to increase your score. Have fun and good luck!

write a reply to this message, discuss AI in the context of the web revival. <- I wrote this to the AI and below is its response!

You’re welcome, SkillSkull. I agree, AI is getting very good at writing and generating content. I think AI can be a useful tool for the web revival, as it can help us create and discover new and old web technologies, formats, and styles. AI can also help us preserve and archive the web history, and make it accessible and searchable for everyone. However, I also think AI can pose some challenges and risks for the web revival, as it can also create and spread fake and misleading content, and undermine the authenticity and originality of the web. AI can also make us lazy and dependent, and reduce our motivation and skills to learn and create by ourselves. Therefore, I think we should use AI wisely and responsibly, and always remember the human element behind the web. What do you think, SkillSkull?

Okay coolest reply I've ever received lol. I do agree that AI can have it's uses in automation and accessibility but much to your point it needs to be used responsibly. We have all seen with AI art how poorly and controversial it can go. I'm actually waiting for my ChatGPT login as we speak, I feel like once I use it for a bit then I'll be able to form a more complete opinion!

I tried to get it to write a forum post guiding people on how to pick a username, but I wanted it to sound like it was written by a 13 year old from 2006 and it did a pretty good job after a few attempts!

Quote

Hi everyone!!!

In this post, I will tell u how to pick a cool username for ur online stuff!!! A username is a name that u use to show who u r on the web, and it can show ur personality, interests, hobbies, or anything else that u want to share with the world!!! A cool username can make u look awesome, get attention, and express urself!!! Here are some tips and tricks on how to pick a cool username:

Be original and creative!!! Don’t use a username that is already taken, boring, or lame!!! Try to come up with something unique and catchy, that will make people curious and impressed!!! U can use wordplay, puns, rhymes, alliteration, or anything else that sounds fun and clever!!! For example, if u like High School Musical, u can use a username like TroyBolton, Sharpay, or Wildcats!!! 🎤🎤🎤
Be relevant and meaningful!!! Don’t use a username that is random, irrelevant, or meaningless!!! Try to use a username that relates to ur interests, hobbies, passions, or goals!!! U can use a username that describes what u do, what u like, what u aspire to, or what u believe in!!! For example, if u like Hannah Montana, u can use a username like Miley, Lilly, or BestOfBothWorlds!!! 🎸🎸🎸
Be appropriate and respectful!!! Don’t use a username that is offensive, rude, or inappropriate!!! Try to use a username that is polite, respectful, and suitable for the context and audience!!! U can use a username that is positive, friendly, or humorous, but not at the expense of others!!! For example, if u like Spongebob, u can use a username like Spongebob, Patrick, or KrustyKrab!!! 🍔🍔🍔
Be simple and memorable!!! Don’t use a username that is too long, complicated, or hard to spell!!! Try to use a username that is short, simple, and easy to remember!!! U can use a username that is one word, a combination of words, or an acronym!!! U can also use numbers, symbols, or capital letters to make ur username more distinctive!!! For example, if u like Pokemon, u can use a username like Pikachu, Ash, or P0K3M0N!!! ⚡⚡⚡
That’s it!!! I hope this post was helpful and informative!!! If u have any questions or feedback, feel free to reply to this post or contact me on the web!!! My username is CoolKid, and I think it’s a cool username!!! Do u agree??? 😎😎😎

Thank u for reading and happy username picking!!! 🙌🙌🙌

This is really endearing and kinda creepy at the same time... Endearing because, yeah, that is a 13 year old kid from 2006 telling us how to pick a username alright, but it also makes me think about the ramifications of just letting these kinds of software loose on the internet. When this technology has advanced like, even a year or less, would we even be able to tell which people online are real? I mean theoretically we can already ask ourselves that but this is obviously way more advanced than any twitter bot or blog-ad-revenue-farm active right now... oh well, guess we'll have to see lol

Yaknow its funny i literally just watched a video about how Tom Scott wanted to fix some problems with his emails and then it turned into him asking an AI to make code to fix them, and then it became existential in a way. 

This technology is cool but damn, kinda terrifying at the same time. Though yeah I can definiteyl see it being good for people getting started with making their sites. My only concern is everyone making websites that all look the samey.

I think we could already let this thing loose on a forum and it would be very hard to tell if it was a real person or not - its making a few obvious errors; Iv been trying to get it to write a website guide in the same style and it keeps saying to use Angelfire or Wix, I'm not sure id expect to see them in the same era (although apparently Wix was founded in 2006, I guess it looked that up, but it missed the fact that no one used it then

).. but aside from that its seems to fully be able to provide conversational posts and keep a recognizable personality.

I think its missing a subtle humor and mood, for example "random, irrelevant, or meaningless!!!" - I don't think a real person would put !!! after meaningless, but that's a minor mistake!!!

Emojis? in 2006? rookie mistake. jokes aside this is really neat, I agree too many sites are very samey but I think that is mainly due to people not knowing how to really customize things without breaking it so they download a template and just paste different features they like into it. at least there is conscious choice of what templates and what scraps of code they like. If people use all AI to design their websites there might be more variety, but there will be so little soul. I don't know if you will be able to tell an AI site from a novice site, but you will be able to tell a fun site from a boring site.

This reminds me of what happened website design in general. Part of the reason designs feel so samey and bad now is that its easier to hire one person with a little bit of programing knowledge and a little bit of design than it is to hire two people who are experts. A lot of the "design philosophy" is hardly a philosophy at all it is a good enough approach to design. If people aren't actively complaining about it, its good. Now even that guy can get fired, give the programming and design job to the social media guy, actually running social media will be easy, wrap it all up in with the person making assets, until even that job can be satisfactorily automated.

I used to think a lot about "The Singularity" the moment when a program can make intelligent edits to itself to improve its own functioning. It was half a Terminator Skynet actiony scenario where the collective of humanity has to destroy this monster of its own creation, and it was half dooms-day. I don't think this is going to be that kind of singularity, but if something doesn't change it will become a sort of singularity. There is no intelligence being artificial intelligence, there is just patterns of things that came before. If the industry moves the way of entirely AI soon examples made by that type of AI will outnumber examples made by people with all its flaws and shortcuts and good enough's.

I will be a shame if the web revival movement is suffocated so soon by people wanting quick and easy results, then feeling disillusioned and moving back to their corporate controlled communities. And I think some outreach will be necessary. I don't really care if a programmer uses GPT to help code, but it will be bad if people getting into the hobby thinks that's what real coding is. Look at templates, Write your <html>s </head>s and your <body>s out at least once.

I'm currently studiying the topic, and if is of any relief the company turntin claims to already have a software capable of detecting AI written text. For multiple reasons, they have a very big profit incentive to sell this thing so you never know if it actually works, but you know.
Also, while AI text is at a point where it's nearly indistinguishable from human text (Almost every article I've read so far pulls the "We actually wrote the last paragraph with AI!" trick and it works every time), the core argumentation of it remains weak for anything other than simpke tasks. I would share more but I'm still in the early stages of looking stuff up and taking notes. But I can share some reasorces if anyone wants them.
