My question is not so much about sharing a cherry picked example, but the question was more like "have you tried in earnest to make it work". That's the part that wasn't clear from your original post. But you say you have, and you weren't impressed. Fair enough. I'm not trying to convince you otherwise, but I encourage people to give the tools a fair chance before throwing up their hands and deciding it's meh.

Having said all that, you're right there isn't a shared experience.

This is a pretty bogus claim. False prophet maybe, but the idea that political activism fizzled out because everyone was eating acid seems pretty unsubstantiated.

I've also used AI to build frontends that I'm more than satisfied with, and I think it can "see" perfectly fine. The frontier models are multi-modal and pretty good at vision. You can hook up your coding harness to your browser which will take screenshots of your rendered frontend and modify the code accordingly.
