There is a decent labour savings to be had in code generation, but under strict guidance with examples.
There's a more substantial savings to be had in research scenarios. The AI can read more and synthesize more, and faster, than I can on my own, and provide references for checking correctness.
I'm not confident enough to say that the approaches being taken now have a hard stopping point any time soon or are inherently bound to a certain complexity.
Human minds can only cope with a certain complexity too and need abstraction to chunk details into atomic units following simpler rules. Yet we've come a long way with our limited ability to cope with complexity.
