This is what I argue in my post on AI's impact on programming jobs -- my take is that if AI ends up automating low end tasks, then it opens up opportunities for us to spend our time on more creative and challenging problems. The current generation of models know all the data structures and algorithms but do they have the ability to extrapolate their knowledge to come up with novel solutions to unseen problems -- which is what we are good at. Similarly, there are tons of interesting problems which are unsolved in other domains and we could use AI's help to tackle those. Naval Ravikant talks about something similar on Joe Rogan Podcast -- where he says everybody can be rich. His argument was that if every human on the planet could become an engineer, or doctor, or scientist, we would solve all of our basic problems in few years and then humanity would be free to explore creative things. So if AI gets us there, we could be writers, actors, scientists.

I find it exciting to live in a time that things are changing fast, to be honest.

Me too, yet I can see how that can lead to future generations not pursuing a career to become experts in anything.
