Suck at what aspect of (analog) electronics specifically? Not contradicting the claim, just want to understand it.
I have not tested yet, but I suspect that LLMs with a harness that can execute code can do SPICE simulations rather ok these days? I have seen MCPs for measurement equipment also, maybe they can even close the physical loop?

I'm working on this but for various reasons can't have my physical lab up at the moment. But yes there are many options for connected test equipment that could rather trivially be interacted with via LLM or pretty easy to write libraries.
spice is a very bad simulation. it's not like a unit test or a VM. it works very differently to the real thing, only approximating it in some highly controlled situations.
