Can AI design circuit boards yet?

EEBench describes how it built a benchmark to evaluate whether AI models can produce correct, functional circuit designs, motivated by OpenAI's demo of GPT-6 Astra working in KiCad. Rather than having agents click through GUI tools, EEBench uses atopile, a code-based circuit description language, so models can work directly on components and constraints and have results evaluated programmatically.
