That's true, but while it is definitely helpful and can accelerate development, I don't generally see writing working functions to do simple, discreet tasks as a bottleneck to engineering in the context of a nontrivial system. But writing quality cold emails tailored to each prospect is definitely a bottleneck to sales--they are time consuming/tedious to write, and you usually need to write tons of them to get results. Same story with marketing copy, ads, social media posts, etc. having the time and energy to produce this content on an ongoing basis is a major bottleneck to marketing.

On the receiving end, being able to rip though thousands of words of AI drivel and pick out the actual content (if any) is going to become a major skill in itself. Not that skim reading and summarisation isn't a skill now, but the noise floor is about to rise by many decibels. Probably there will be AI tools to de-AI messages, like reverse semantic companders[1], coming soon. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companding https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companding
