> Another thing is that trying to take away creative jobs from humans and giving it to robots while the menial ones (like data entry, manual labor, household work, etc.) are still being done by humans is an insult to humanity itself.

I don't think this is going to happen anytime soon. LLMs may be able to somewhat compete with people who are average at these creative tasks, but those are not the people whose work most people consume. We listen to music and read books by people who are very good at creating music/writing, and I don't see LLMs competing with those people. And even if they were able to compete, they'd still miss the "human" element - eg., I'm probably not going to a concert if there are no humans performing.

AI will expand to be able to do more boring, menial tasks. Writers and musicians (and other creative people) will probably be amongst the last who loose their jobs to AI.

I think the problem here is a societal one. One born of capitalism, that does not value art in itself but only the value people ascribe to it. And the problem I see is less that it replaces good artists, but that it takes away menial work that artists might use to support their more artistic endeavors.

I think this is a real problem worthy of much discussion, but I also think this is not primarily an AI topic but more a general one about what kind of human expression our societies value and want to encourage. You can't stop progress here, though we could decide to not like it and do something else.
