Art is looked down on, considered frivolous and unimportant, right up until it's needed. Art is all around us, even a website is a work of art. A car chassis. Video game assets. Even something like a sign or pamphlet. And it sucks that we look at art like it's not valuable or important.

So when I look at people who use AI, one of the common refrains is that it's putting art in the hands of everyone, not just the skilled. Ditto coding or writing or anything else modern ML tools are being pitched to do. And in that sense I get it. It feels like a tool doing stuff they can't or won't.

That's why I won't begrudge people for using AI to begin with, but I get the feeling that the article implies that AI is going to do the job on its own and only those who know how to use it will have jobs. That fundamentally misunderstands what AI is capable of - And how not-hard it is to use.
