The training data just isn't there yet, but I imagine they could use a circuit simulator for the verification involved in training the model, right?

The problem is really that schematics are at the very heart of electronics design (and teaching/instruction), so to train a model you need a very powerful vision model to really unlock all the good training data.
The models can also output code that can be turned into a schematic through an interpreter, but there is virtually zero training data for this because humans always use and work with schematics.
They might be able to help stitch together modules (like sensor boards plugged into microcontrollers) and definitely can write code to get things going, but they fall flat on their face hard for any kind of bare bones electronics design. Like 5% success rate and 95% totally incorrect hallucinations.
