this sort of UI element only works if large enough
it looks extremely distracting, doubly so if animated
it's less flexible when it comes to background colour, depending on the object you're representing
And, really, if you need to use a generative model to do this shit, it already hints it's more complex than the necessary. Less is more as long as "less" doesn't mean "dysfunctional".
This is never going to catch on. If anything, we will be going back to flat-ish-skeuomorphic UI.
I gotta say, I do miss color.
Coloured elements are fine. You don't really need to make everything black and white to make it work. It's just that, after a certain point, additions are pointless - they don't convey further meaning, they don't improve the aesthetics (a rather subjective part), they're just there because some designer is eager to vomit certainty on the future and to chase trends.
