AI can do that too? If you have a web app it can use playwright to test functionality and take screenshots to see if it looks right.

Yeah, but it doesn't work nearly as well. The AI frequently misinterprets what it sees. And it isn't as good at actually using the website (or app, or piece of hardware, etc) as a human would.

But then the AI would theoretically have to write the playwright code. How does it verify it's getting the right page to begin with?
