Sadly, a great deal of applied business programming in modern capitalism doesn't give you the option of enjoying the creative process.
In effect, everything is classified as: "low value work with dead lines, where the customers don't really care about the result either."

So you use AI when it's all right to produce slop. That actually seems reasonable.
If you enjoy the craft and the creative process of actually coming up with new thoughts, instead of relying on the probabilistic combinations of thoughts of others, then you can just as well do it yourself and have full control of the process.
I use AI for low value work with dead lines, where the customers don't really care about the result either. For the golden services and customer engagements were I can tell the customer cares deeply, I use little to no AI, and then get a deep sense of fulfillment due to a job well done.
