It will eventually, when people realize it's just a giant and complex statistical response machine. It's really just giving you the words and/or set of pixels back that are the usual response to the words you provided. If there was no training data, there would be no AI.
It's like a parrot, but more complex and requires nuclear power plants to generate enough power to keep it going.
A Parrot has actual intelligence
I have people on my team who use AI in their daily work, they describe it as like a "mirror" you can use to feed your ideas into and reshape or analyze in new ways. It doesn't have any reasoning or thinking capability outside of what you type into it.
I am really critical of generative AI being used as a substitute for actual work, that's where it tends to fail miserably. I cannot stand people who let AI do their writing or graphical projects for them, but I have no issue with people using it to help them complete a project with references, ideas and suggestions. Just don't let it do the work, because it is, by definition, an "averaging machine" so that everything it outputs is supremely... average.
I had it write a program to quickly make a Shopify csv to quickly expand my shop listings. I know how to program enough to fix and expand but not enough to sit around and want to bang these programs out.
I also have a photo script to add a bunch of things to thumbnails.
