That's the real benefit of AI today: you can test your ideas almost as fast as you can generate them, in parallel even. If you have a crazy idea that is unlikely to work but has massive advantages if it does, you just set an agent to explore and prototype it while you focus your main attention elsewhere. And so on.
It's still GIGO, though! An AI can make a bad idea work (and will do so if you don't carefully prompt it to not be so sycophantic!) but it won't work well. Knowing when the idea is bad and should be abandoned is also the part that currently requires human judgment.
That said, given the pace at which models have been improving so far, I can't help but think that this is a transient state of affairs.
