It's like anything. I can cook my own food. That doesn't mean I don't go out to restaurants sometimes. I could use an LLM myself to write a novel. But it wouldn't be the same novel. And there is some skill in prompt writing. Even then, just the sheer time to generate a novel-length coherent work from small snippets of chat windows is still a large investment of time.
