I agree with the Ray Dalio perspective on this. AI is not a creative force. It is only a different form of automation. So, the only value to AI is to get to know your habits. As an example have it write test cases in your code style so you don't have to. That is it.

If you sucked before using AI you are going to suck with AI. The compounded problem there is that you won't see just how bad you suck at what you do, because AI will obscure your perspective through its output, like an echo chamber of stupid. You are just going to suck much faster and feel better about it. Think of it as steroids for Dunning-Kruger.
