AI is bad at overlapping

At one of my current projects, we use htmx + alpine.js + Thymeleaf backend. The results are suprisingly bad.

What took too much time when I try to remember the times before AI? Overlappings between technologies. I do not mean interfaces - this is a different topic. But overlappings are hard: where do I put the barrier. Is this a use case where I can move the barrier a little bit more to thymeleaf? Should I solve this in the MVC Controller? Or should I just add another endpoint? What is the current practice in the code base. Everywhere where it gets blurry and sometimes foggy, even.

This is where humans struggle - and it seems as if AI struggles as well. I hardly get a correct combination of punctuation back from Claude when I ask for use of alpine.js together with Thymeleaf. I confess - this is everything except from easy. But I hopped, AI could solve it. Unfortunatealy it doesn't. The time it takes the feedback loop to figure it out - I am still faster unfortunately ;)
