Tailwind is down because it solved the same problem that AI does - CSS is super complex, write only code and largely not memorable.
AI is perfect for writing CSS because you can tell it your intent and it does it.
There just is not the need for frameworks/libs to make it less complex.
I have just written an article about this (submitted by someone else: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46565409)
What you are saying is wrong and countered with hard data: LLMs produce and increase the use of tailwind not decrease it. Confirmed by the founder himself.
And you think LLMs can't produce tailwind components? Because that's the problem they are facing, not tailwind usage itself.
Where is the hard data?
