What is a bit missing in this discussion is that many frontends are very bad, user hostile or non-intuitive. This has nothing to do with LLMs or frameworks in my opinion just bad decisions of the designer. It is not only web apps or websites filled with e.g slow cookie warnings, terrible navigation, or dark patterns. Also the UX of Android, iOS, MacOS and Windows became at most average but not at all better (many things are just worse, buggy and inconsistent). If I had thought in the early 2000s how we interact with devices in the 2020s I would never have imagined thr mediocrity that those market leading billion dollar companies release and get away with it. LLMs obviously don’t help here since they are trained on all of this.

Especially elderly people who rarely use devices suffer from this (and their relatives who do IT support :-))
