The same thing happens if you are the head cook in a restaurant.
If you are a cook wanting to open a restaurant, you will be delegating, the same thing with AI. If you are fine only doing what your hands can possibly do in the time allotted, go ahead and cook in your kitchen.
But I need to make money to be able to trade for the food I eat.
You will make money but the others are the artists.
That’s the whole point. You become a customer of an AI service, you get what you want but it wasn’t done by you. You get money but not the feeling of accomplishment from cracking a problem. Like playing a video game following a solution or solving a crossword puzzle with google.

It's a carved wooden dragon that my dad got from Indonesia (probably about 50 years ago).
It's hard to appreciate, if you aren't holding it, but it weighs a lot, and is intricately carved, all over.
I guarantee that the carver used a Dremel.
I still have a huge amount of respect for their work. That wood is like rock. I would not want to carve it with hand tools.
There's just some heights we can't reach, without a ladder.
What good is a “feeling of accomplishment” as I am on the street homeless, hungry and naked?
Pretty B/W view. The feeling of accomplishment is the part that makes a job interesting, if it’s just about money it becomes dull.
And don’t forget, it’s more likely to find someone cheaper who can write the same prompts as you than people with the same kind of experience in cracking problems.
