•Results are subjective and lack quantitative design metrics.

Post Description

Hey HN! A while back I asked Codex to generate a companion site for a book I was enjoying. It ended up generating a landing page for the book that was ...actually good? I went down a bit of a rabbit hole prompting different models to generate landing pages for different books and this is the result.

The site runs you through a series of blind "taste" tests to help you figure out which model's designs you prefer. Would love any feedback you have if you try it out!
