Yep and when we invented mechanical computers, we put human computers out of the job.

When we invented the automatic loom we put weavers out of the job.

When we invented electric lights we put lamplighters out of the job.

When we invented digital art we put many brushmakers, canvas makers, paint makers out of the job.

This is the cost of progress.
