Is AI / Claude just crap at building UI or am I holding it wrong?
Claude Code Opus 5 and Fable 5 both fail at basic things when creating UI. Of course it looks generic AF. But it also has blatant problems like each button styled a bit differently, completely half-assing most URL work and stuff clearly clipped through the container or the viewport.
To be fair AI works damn well for backend, systems, cryptography, backend-in-the-fromtend work. And I am using the Chrome MCP to let it auto-debug in the browser etc and (only a couple) other skills.
Are your results different? Has anyone cracked it and do you have any advice?
