AI中文摘要：
生成式AI以其倾向于同质化而闻名，常常复现训练数据中占主导地位的风格惯例。然而，其同质化效应在复杂结构任务如网络设计中的扩展仍不明确。随着非专业创作者越来越多地使用LLMs进行'vibe-code'网站设计——即通过提示实现审美和功能性目标而非编写代码——他们可能无意中缩小了设计的多样性，并限制了互联网上的创造性表达。本文探讨了网络vibe编码中的设计同质化可能性。我们首先描述了vibe编码生命周期，指出了同质化风险可能产生的阶段。然后进行了一项社会技术风险分析，解构了web vibe coding潜在危害及其与设计同质化相互作用的可能性。我们发现，对摩擦less生成的追求会加剧同质化及其危害。最后，我们提出了一种以productive friction为核心的理念缓解框架。通过微观、中观和宏观层面的案例研究，我们展示了如何通过引入productive friction使创作者能够挑战默认输出并保持AI介导网络设计中的多样化表达。
英文摘要：
Generative AI is known for its tendency to homogenize, often reproducing dominant style conventions found in training data. However, it remains unclear how these homogenizing effects extend to complex structural tasks like web design. As lay creators increasingly turn to LLMs to 'vibe-code' websites -- prompting for aesthetic and functional goals rather than writing code -- they may inadvertently narrow the diversity of their designs, and limit creative expression throughout the internet. In this paper, we interrogate the possibility of design homogenization in web vibe coding. We first characterize the vibe coding lifecycle, pinpointing stages where homogenization risks may arise. We then conduct a sociotechnical risk analysis unpacking the potential harms of web vibe coding and their interaction with design homogenization. We identify that the push for frictionless generation can exacerbate homogenization and its harms. Finally, we propose a mitigation framework centered on the idea of productive friction. Through case studies at the micro, meso, and macro levels, we show how centering productive friction can empower creators to challenge default outputs and preserve diverse expression in AI-mediated web design.
