The first human who discovered that they could draw something on a wall probably also got bored after a while.
And thought "I assume this will have the most usage as a once in a while tool to decorate my cave with funny animals".
But then drawing animals turned into writing. Turned into printing. Turned into emails and the web and the web 2.0 and now here we are, sending our thoughts across the world with the speed of light. Using software that we wrote to tell computers how to do this for us.
It might be similar with AI driven image generation. That it evolves in ways that are currently hard to foresee. Maybe one day, our thoughts are translated in realtime into images and send across the galaxy with the speed of light. Or faster?

I know the requirements for something like that are extraordinarily high, but I could see it in 30-40 years being viable.
