idk if you read my notes but i have been saying this for some time about AI... it's a lossy compression system, and it can't write a new algorithm, and can hardly write an old one
This article does good to explain something I've been thinking about a lot lately. It can essentially be summed as "Enshitification sucks", but I have a deep feeling that software isn't built to serve actual humans anymore.
It's another reason I'm not super bullish on using AI to build products. It will all converge on most common design patterns, which are becoming increasingly useless to humans. I want software that isn't meant to manipulate me and my behavior, but that serves me in a way that meaningfully improves my life.

I've seen them for sure haha and I totally agree with you. And even beyond algorithms, it's a statistical model. So, if we train it on how to build UI's with a ton of shit UI's, what do you think we'll get?
