Such has been the case with many technological advancements. You can change the date on this to 1999 and complain that the Internet has accomplished this; suddenly everyone can get information on car repairs, recipes, and the like, without needing to do lots of research ahead of time or take a course, thus killing the need for a mechanic or a bakery.

Outside of software development, a lot of things that AI can do still require a human to understand and do it. I can't tell Claude to change my oil, or ChatGPT to bake me a cake. I can use them as tools to teach me what to do, same as the Internet, or TV programs, or books, or any other "invention."
