Unfortunately you aren't a high velocity builder. The velocity curve has now shifted and everyone having Claude blast out loc after loc is now a high velocity builder. And when everyone is a high velocity builder...nobody is.
“And when everyone’s super, no one will be”.
Fair point, but my hope is that the creativity involved in deciding what to build, with the choice informed by engineering experience (the project/value will not be obvious to everyone) will allow differentiation.

How? Anyone upon seeing your digital product can just prompt the same thing in no time. If you can prompt it, I can prompt it and so can a million other people.
Nobody whether an individual or business holds any uniqueness or advantage to themselves. All careers and skill sets are leveled and worthless. Implementation skills are worthless. Creativity is worthless.
The only valuable thing is data.
Agree on data value, but as mentioned above I am not yet buying the “everything will be instantly copyable and so any solution is instantly commodity” argument … crud web-app sure, something with significant back-end complexity or a multi-service systems level solution, not so much. Perhaps optimistic, admittedly. Cheers.
