Are web designers officially obsolete? 📉

by•

Hey everyone,

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. With everything happening in AI, do 90% of standard businesses even need a web designer anymore?

Obviously, if you're Apple or Nike, you need human genius. But for a local bakery, a basic startup landing page, or a plumber?

We wanted to test how far we could push this, so we built ChatToSite. There’s no dashboard or drag-and-drop. You literally just text the AI for 5 minutes like a friend on Messenger, and it spits out a clean, responsive website.

Looking at what it builds, I have to ask: why would a small business owner ever pay a couple of grand for a basic site again?

I know this might hit a nerve, but I want to hear the raw truth:

  • Where exactly does automated web design still suck compared to a real human?

  • If you're a designer, how are you preparing for this shift?

It's live at (you don't even need to sign up to test the chat). Go ahead, break it, and tell me where it fails. Prove me wrong.
