Short answer
No. Most people and businesses are still early in using AI well. The lasting advantage is not knowing one chatbot; it is AI literacy, breaking problems down, understanding data, designing workflows, judging output critically and combining AI with your own domain expertise. Those skills stay useful as tools change.
