Compared to painting, software allows you to solve the problem once, then distribute the solution to the problem basically for free.

Market frictions cause the problem to be solved multiple times.

LLMs learn the solution patterns and apply it devaluing coming up with solutions in the first place.

Well, slightly different take: it's like telling an artist the world doesn't need another song about love, these already exist and can be re-heard as needed. Sharper formulated: a CRM or TODO-list is a solved problem in theory, right? tons of solutions even free ones to use out there. still look at what people are doing and selling - CRMs and TODO-list variations. because, in fact, its not solved, and always has certain tradeoffs that doesn't fit some people.
