Today, a simple google search will tell them the correct answer for the quiz question, why bother with discussing the actual answer, the lore and the facts behind it, etc! This is just one example of a creative skill which is rapidly degrading among humans and already taken over by Turing machines.
Or you could acquire more general knowledge than ever before. It's devalued knowledge economically but it hasn't stopped anyone from pursuing it.

Are "we" (humankind) creating AI at all? I wouldn't call Stable "Humans have 6~8 fingers per hand" Diffusion and large "potatoes are active, oranges are passive" models "intelligent".
