    Have you stopped coding? I assume not! ChatGPT is a tool that can be used by human workers, replacing human workers is beyond it.

    And sure, you can generate bland and derivative images with stable diffusion stuff, but it can’t replace anyone. At best it just opens up the creation of art to a wider group of people, essentially de-skilling the profession. That’s a serious problem! That’s not actually substitution.

    De-skilling is definitely worth talking about, though. When someone who doesn’t really understand coding or art can generate what they need, all of that skill built up over the years by professionals will become less valuable. That’s just like how I weld car parts despite not having the skill to actually weld most things. I’m not a skilled welder, yet I can replace a skilled welder with the right tools and robots.
