You should check out Synthesia, feed it some text, and it'll create a video presentation of a human talking. It's definitely not as good as a real presenter at the moment, but it's just a matter of time.

I'm talking like far in the future, where indeed every piece of work created by an AI could be a masterpiece. But there will always be degrees of difference between AI output generated by people who are skillful and those who are not.

Learning to be happy is probably the most important and timeless skill of all. But in the context of earning a living in an AI future, then my sentiment still remains the same.

Yeah. Especially given that AI at the moment is likely to generate false information when it lacks information. Also, there's no way to know that information it is trained on is fact.

Yeah the implications to education are interesting. I am thinking that instead of teaching our children how to code an app, it would be better to teach them how to discern what makes an app good. Then, when they tell an AI to code an app, they're able to judge with confidence what's good or bad.

Yeah. This is especially evident with the image generation AIs like DALL-E and Midjourney. The results generated by users are clearly not equal.

I agree that the most basic AI output could eventually come to surpass even the best human output. After all, the AI can draw upon ALL human writing of all time.
But to say that human altered text would be inferior is to say that the work is so perfect that any alteration would be detractive. On this point, I'm not so sure. Especially since what is "best" is often subjective.
Human alteration could vary the style or feel of the AI's work. Like how we would say Van Gogh and Leonardo Da Vinci are both great artists, but their differences are not on who is better, it's just different styles.
