This part made me think how I've commented recently that AI does the thing it was designed to do, but that the thing it was designed to do is generate something you could believe somebody wrote on the internet.
That doesn't mean the answer is correct, of course. It's often confidently wrong, just like real people online!
But when it comes to artistic expression, there is no clear right or wrong. Music, art, and the written word are some of the most human things we have, but you are absolutely right that they will be replaced. If a marketing director can pay Google a few dollars to generate a hundred concept drawings so they can do "I'll know it when I see it" design, that's a human artist job they won't budget for.
