We've had that for a long, long time. Notably RAD-tooling running on XML.
The main lesson has been that it's actually not much of an enabler and the people doing it end up being specialised and rather expensive consultants.
RAD before transformers was like trying to build an iPhone before capacitive multitouch: a total waste of time.
Things are different now.
I'm not so sure. What can you show me that you think would be convincing?
I think there are enough examples of genuine AI-facilitated rapid application development out there already, honestly. I wouldn't have anything to add to the pile, since I'm not a RAD kind of guy.
Disillusionment seems to spring from expecting the model to be a god or a genie instead of a code generator. Some people are always going to be better at using tools than other people are. I don't see that changing, even though the tools themselves are changing radically.
