No, AI is still absolutely terrible at design.
It doesn't matter if they are good at implementation.
If you ask for a car and they build you an awesome surfboard, it's basically worthless.
Sure, if you're building rapid prototypes where it doesn't matter if anything is coherent or works, AI crushes it.
If it's a 99% derivative small greenfield project, AI crushes it.
For anything real, it is still a painfully awful experience to extract juice from the squeeze.
