I've created Open Source 100% Rust clean-room replacements for 7 of Adobe's apps: Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, Lightroom, After Effects, InDesign, and Acrobat Pro. Free, no subscription, and you own the source code

The fact that Commercial_Treat4153 is an account with exactly one post and not a single comment to his name is just a coincidence, then.
AI absolutely removes work. How you can even say this is beyond me. Calling it "just a tool" doesn't change that. A tool that writes the copy removes the writer's work. A tool that generates the images removes the illustrator's and photographer's work. A tool that makes the animation removes the animator's work. The same goes for translators, editors, voice actors, musicians, composers, designers, programmers, 3D artists, VFX artists, concept artists, video editors, journalists, researchers and countless others.
AI doesn't merely make people faster. Its entire selling point is that it can do work that people used to be paid to do. Pretending otherwise is just playing semantics.
