alt Hacker NewsMy feedback for whatever it's worth as a 25yr design veteran.
* Massive token usage, some small tasks burned through $50 of credits and did not offer $50 of value.
* Terrible at logo work. Comically bad. This is something that is "hard" so it could add great value if it could deliver.
* Repeatedly forgot prior feedback - when iterating it would re-implement prior iterations after being told why we didn't want that result which made for a very frustrating UX.
* Prone to adding visual clutter - kept adding extra elements that look "pretty" but add no value to the user.
* Seems better at "pretty" vs user focused / UX.
* Did not do a good job at using my existing design / UI library
* REALLY wanted to start from scratch. Could not be coaxed into designing part of an application, it wanted to redesign the whole thing.

OK but what we really want to know, what's it like when it comes to drawing pelicans riding on bicycles?
I'm curious, is there anything out there that will get you the 80% of logo work? Claude opus always came closest to me as a non-designer, but it was always still something far from usable.
