alt Hacker News"incredibly" is doing a ton of work here. I do not think its doing even moderate work on visual design, but it can spew out a lot of ui that looks arranged ... ok.
This is still not in the range of shippable UI for top end companies. Maybe for internal tools and enterprise.
At our comapny we limit to protoypes at most and even find it limited there.

Claude is very good at design IF you encode your design system/specs into skill files (or similar).
Opus 4.7 made this a practical approach. 4.8 improved it. Fable 5 has improved it more.

Given the shit we've seen shipped by "top end companies" (all the way to Apple) I seriously doubt that. I'd say you're nitpicking from an artistic point of view or something.

so this is why claude talks like this, i was wondering where it was getting this verbal tick from.
By what measure?

Look, I don't want to argue about something dumb like that, but you can give it basic instructions of what the UI should look like, how to group things, and an example image from a designer, and it will nail the result. If you don't think that's incredible, that's fine. I do.
