Vibe coding, creativity, craft and professionalism - are we making ourselves redundant?

Systems that allow us to create videos, images, and full immersive games chatting with an AI are all the rage. "Vibe Coding" promises that anyone can be a maker without having to have any technical knowledge. That's great and means a democratisation of digital creation, opening a whole new world of "making" to people that may have ideas, but not the means or ability. But what does that mean in terms of quality, ownership and satisfaction? Is AI moving us into a world of cookie-cutter solutions that work "well enough" and get discarded soon after creation? Or is there a way that AI can become like a creative partner that we can bounce ideas around with and still end up with a well crafted product we can be proud of?
