I see two problems with the AI narrative at this point

1. You can generate whatever you want via a prompt. The biggest problem with this point is it's not true and it's not even how one wants to work with AI: in a collaborative manner. Sure, this might satisfy prosumer needs - and maybe there's a large market for that, but it's not going to satisfy professional needs. Professionals have a lot of expertise and experience they bring to the table and AI can't simply discard that.

2. This really reinforces point (1) - this whole notion that AI can "replace" people. AI by itself is lowering the bar - it's not capable of producing results that are as good as the best of humans can create. What we really want is to raise the bar, and that requires collaboration between experts and AI that goes way beyond today's prompts. The most important point of this is people are still needed to produce the best results. Experienced people.

AI and robotics will end up transforming nearly every job in existence, but that doesn't mean that every job should be eliminated.
