Maybe I'm living under a rock, but I have serious doubts about this claim.

How is that even possible? Take the example of the graphic designer. You'd still need them to iterate on ideas, come up with different versions for different backgrounds, generate different file types depending on the medium and format, etc. Extremely skeptical of your claims.

That's the thing, a lot of professionals do rote jobs that are necessary but not valued by their employers - such as designers at law firms. Many law firms, I believe, will settle for an AI-generated version of their old logo/masthead/website and fire their designer.
