Yeah, the real usecase for AI is not having it come up with ideas, it's letting people who have ideas but not skills or times put them to use. Being competent yourself at e.g. storytelling is essential for the AI-assisted creation to be good. If you tell the AI to "just generate me X", it's gonna be slop. But if you have a vision for X, have the AI generate it for you, refine it, re-prompt it, maybe touch it up by hand later - that's the perfect usecase for AI.
This is true for everything btw, IMO. I use AI at work for programming daily, and it can appear very competent at times, outputting code that can solve pretty involved problems. But if you just let it shit out slop for you, the codebase quickly becomes slop. I've found that even reviewing the AI's code is not good enough - it's what I used to do at first and I honestly observed the quality of my own work dropping; nowadays I make sure that I know exactly what code needs writing first, and then use AI to fill in the gaps under my direct guidance. It's still noticeably faster than writing out every last detail by hand, and it lets me make sure the code is entirely up to my standards.
AI is not an "invent me a complete work out of thin air!" tool, it's a better smart fill tool. Much, much, much better, but still only a fill tool, and the output is only as good as the framework that you give it for filling can guide it.
