The person’s goals might not be spending a lot of time on CSS. Because a person who just does everything from scratch may find themselves learning about what FlexBox is or why your z-index isn’t working.

Going off of the two screenshots in the OP, neither of those were about frontend.

So if the choice is spending time designing a more human frontend or spending more time on the core product, I don’t fault people for choosing the latter.

Now if the core product also stinks, that’s a different issue.

The difference between people who want to learn things versus people who just want a finished product is going to be a big dividing line in the post AI world

It's also a nice opportunity to learn while getting something out!

Learn what though? Is knowing CSS at all relevant to making a site all about, say, every type of cheese? If I have, say, 6 hours to build that site, does learning about CSS make the site better, or does learnin about the history of rennet make the site better? The assumption that using AI to replace learning about CSS is replaced by being a drooling moron with the time saved instead, is unfounded. The AI is a fountain of knowledge (that you have to double check). That people choose to not to learn about topics they don't find interesting because they'd rather learn about topics they do find interesting, doesn't automatically make them dumber than you.

Then chances are it’ll be subpar either way. Every type of cheese, in six hours? The CSS isn’t the bottleneck there, it’s information hierarchy and the information itself. You can’t possibly learn about the history of cheeses and summarise it and organise it for a website in that amount of time. Writing the website code isn’t the lengthy part.

Why so rough? I don’t see any judgement of character or intelligence in the comment you’re replying to.
