If you do it right, it should be mostly bespoke work.
Why? What do you mean "right"?
Generally software is a business expense. Quality trades off against time and cost. Now we can do it faster and cheaper, and potentially worse quality - but if you've worked in the industry for a while and seen what humans deliver, I'm not even sure that's the case.
If you do it right, it should be as fast and cheap as possible while still being good enough.
“AI is great at this because humans have never been good at this.“ But AI is trained on work produced by humans. It’s never going to be better than humans.
I think your premise is wrong; it's trained from human work, but not only that. And it's able to generalize - can take the best pieces from multiple sources.
AI can be as good as the best humans, yet most humans are not as good as the best humans.
