Anthropic had Claude (Fable 5.2) design three devices from one-paragraph prompts each: a voice-assistant hub, a USB speakerphone, and a handheld virtual pet. It wrote specs, picked parts, routed PCBs, modeled cases, and wrote firmware. Each board was manufacturing-ready in under a day and all three worked with no electrical fixes. Humans still assemble them by hand — for now.
