Shopping is another classic. I personally don't want to trust an AI agent with checkout. research is fine, but I don't want the AI to go on a shopping spree or Amazon added some subscription into their checkout flow and suddenly, I'm paying for Prime because my AI agent thought it's a good idea or just missed it.
It's not unheard of that Amazon bundles a subscription into your checkout. So I don't think it's too unrealistic.
I think that makes sense. You are less fiddling around and only need CodePen when you are really stuck but AI solves many problems now.
The shift from sharing little HTML/CSS/JS components to a website builder is probably their answer to this problem. They want to position themselves to compete with a Loveable, Replit and others. It's probably not the same, a little more technical, but the direction definitely shifted.

they are trying to expand beyond their tech audience.
I think your hunch is very much spot on. It doesn’t look trustworthy at all.
