I work with others who have made this same claim. For those people, when I observed their work during demo days the unmentioned thing is that they were going to the AI for system design questions as well. This was framed as "just using it as a sounding board" but what was actually done was not merely a sounding board but instead was asking for solutions. Anchoring bias being what it is, these felt like good ideas and they kept them.
Its the feeling of having done a lot of thinking for themselves without having actually done so.
I actually have gone to the AI repeatedly for system design solutions.
Daily.
I think only twice have I agreed with it.
Like the way it will always give you code if you ask, even if the code is crap, it will always give you a design if you ask. Won't be a good design, though.
