I've reached for this solution many times too; it's certainly convenient.

What I don't like is that all the resulting pages look the same. It's so easy to tell when a page is authored by Claude, and by now, I get the same “ugh another one” feeling as Dall-E generated images would give when they were completely overdone.

Maybe it's just be, but if not, maybe HTML generated outputs will also end up being dialed down from where they're at now.

But maybe not, since it's obviously a useful thing to be able to do. I wonder if there's a way out. To be able to introduce some natural entropy so not everything ends up looking the same. I guess not, since we're using machines whose natural mode of behavior is regression toward the mean. And maybe having it be harder to tell the author wouldn't even be desirable anyway.
