I sympathize your your feelings of existential dread without further qualifiers. Big hug!
I personally think that as amazing as LLMs for coding are, LLMs for coding and electronics is like activating the powered robotic exoskeleton for your mind.
As for whether your projects are lower quality (the kids would say "mid"; catch up!) or not... they are higher quality than the ones you made last year, and I heard that the actual best way to learn is by doing. Ideally also asking a ton of questions at each step.
Some nights I lay in bed just relentlessly interrogating ChatGPT in audio mode about transformers and op-amps.

Thank you!

This is exactly it. Perfect is the enemy of good here. These projects have made significant impacts on how I get real things done.
