I did some fairly pioneering product and visual design work (early to the trends sorta thing) long before AI, over a decade ago:

And I would disagree with that sentiment.

Generative tech just makes it easier to create more things at much greater scale that would be possible without it.

I've used Photoshop and Blender for like 25 years. Lens flare and Filter Gallery - the original "one shot" have always been around. Just because Photoshop and Flash existed it didn't make everyone great at it.

Same is true with this stuff. Some of the best people doing video right now are unbelievably good at it. To your point - they were likely great video editors before AI, but to my point they are being supercharged by it now.
