I've been writing code for long enough to see a lot of cycles come and go. The current LLM hype reminds me of every other "this changes everything" moment we've lived through. Like those other moments, there's some real value buried under a mountain of breathless takes and venture capital.
LLMs are good at generating CSS. They're terrible at following design systems. Give Claude or Cursor a component to build and it will happily use #FF5734 instead of your brand red, 16px instead of your spacing tokens, and font-weight: 600 instead of your typography scale.
