What it was the end of was talentless painters who were just copying what they saw. Painting stopped being for service and started being for art. That is where software development is going.

I think a better way of saying this are people who were just doing it for a job, not because of a lot of talent or passion for painting.

But doing something just because it is a job is what a lot of people have to do to survive. Not everyone can have a profession that they love and have a passion for.

That’s where the problem comes in when it comes to these generative AI.
