Don't use accessibility features either. Just build for humans and let AI understanding take care of understanding all of the details.

Following accessibility best practice is what designing for humans looks like.
The best practices are changing. Many accessibility features were built due to the computer not being understand correctly. For example how something that looks like a checkbox despite being just a div is would not get recognized properly. Now with AI, the AI understands what a checkbox is and can understand from the styling that there is a checkbox there.
That's a huge resource cost though, and simply unnecessary. We should be building semantically valid HTML from the beginning rather than leaning on a GPU cluster to parse the function based on the entire HTML, CSS, and JS on the page (or a screenshot requiring image parsing by a word predictor).
Or just use <input type="checkbox"> in the first place and save humans and machines a whole bunch of time.
