Am I stupid to start web design agency in 2024

So, right now we've seen how much AI can do, but we are still far from getting an aesthetically pleasing website in one prompt. I've had this idea for a long time to start my own agency, but this is a very competitive market. The cherry on top is that everyone is doing it, and 95% are terrible at it. There is also a wave of people selling courses on how to start an agency, especially those insufferable sigma males selling their courses. This makes agencies seem cheap because so many people are doing it, and I might become a sheep in a big herd that will fall into an ocean of traps.

But I am a big Peter Thiel fan, and he and everyone says, "Do things that don't scale." So I try to do that by selling website design as a luxury product. This means I will make the Rolex of websites. After revenue becomes great, I will automate as many things as possible and create a system that is so good and efficient it produces a website with everything in one day. So, I want options and advice.
