This. LLM's are still not good enough to trust for Vibe-Circuit building - a circuit re-design is a lot more cost and time than a code change - But they can get you over so many hurdles getting you to the right references in forums and datasheets quickly, I suspect it wont be too long before they can make schematics and PCB's that are 90% there, but currently much more useful in the firmware design.

I am now more of a hobbyist than a professional and LLM's allow me to get results quicker, for example over Christmas I replaced my Pioneer stereo with a new custom motherboard, re-using the class AB analog parts and all the switches and the VFD Display. LLM helped me do it a lot quicker and gave me a couple of novel options, write up here => https://rodyne.com/?p=3380
