Google has “understood” English queries for a while now in the sense that you can type a question in English into the search bar and it goes off and does “useful work”.
The problem with these AI implementations is that it goes off and does work, but not always useful work. In many cases it’s wrong. In many cases the result is below entry-level.
In those times where it can pass a structured test like a bar exam, then absolutely praise it and get curious about how it can add value to people’s lives.
But in this instance, it couldn’t pass a CS 101 or Design 101 class. It’s on its way, but these claims of being able to use AI to create websites are premature.
At this pace we might be there in a few years or even months, but right now the quality is lacking from any demo I’ve seen and in my own attempts as a designer to use it in the design process.
