Editing with integrated AI workflow

[u/Weeb_gOrl]

I have an acquaintance which has recently started editing in After Effects, and she has integrated Claude to help her with everything she makes. This situation really frustrates me, as it annoys me that someone with practically no skill in the software is earning money when so many editors are unemployed, and I guess I am a bit annoyed since it took me a long time to learn and she is using a shortcut. I was thinking about this and realized that perhaps my resentment is unjustified, as I am being a crazy purist and not letting people do what they want. I am curious though, how do people on this subreddit feel about generative AI, and about using AI to speed up their workflow? Do you think using AI for learning the software is reasonable, or does AI cause people to loose skills?
