This paper investigates User Experience (UX) with prototypes generated by Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools. An empirical survey with 92 participants evaluated AI-generated and human-created prototypes without prior identification of authorship. We measured UX using the UEQ-S, covering pragmatic and hedonic dimensions. Results indicate positive evaluations in pragmatic aspects, such as usability and efficiency, and neutral or negative evaluations in hedonic aspects, including originality and innovation. We concluded that GenAI can produce functional interfaces but tends to reinforce visual and structural patterns that affect perceptions of originality.
