I like the distinction between using AI and shipping the first thing AI gives you. The visual patterns are easy to spot, but I think the bigger giveaway is beneath the UI generic copy, inconsistent user flows, and edge cases that clearly weren't thought through.

We've seen the same while helping teams at IT Path Solutions turn AI-generated MVPs into production apps. The code gets you to version one quickly, but the refinement both in UX and engineering is what gives a product its own identity. AI accelerates building; taste and iteration are still what make people remember it.
