Do you not see how your argument could be applied to steam engines putting human laborers out of work? Or computers putting (human) calculators out of work? Do you think inventing the steam machine or computers was a mistake too?

What new jobs are going to be created when AI does everything humans currently do? In the past when new technologies were created, new jobs and industries were also created, but with AI, jobs are already being lost but I don't see many new jobs being created to replace them, other than "people who know how to talk to an AI to get what they want" and I have a feeling this will be a rather miniscule number of jobs.

Steam engines and computers solve problems to improve human life. They more efficiently perform tasks to free up time for humans to do other things they would rather be doing.

These API composers perform a task many humans want to do. And there are roughly zero consumers of music saying "you know what's missing from the music market? music made with no human input."

This strictly serves capital. The goal is to destroy more artists livelihood to marginally increase the wealth of already wealthy people.
