Scratch 4.0 and AI

I have a few concerns with this new ‘AI scratch’. I'm not trying to be critical or mean, but I just think these are things the ST should look out for.
first, Is it really ‘creative AI’ if it's not the user's own creativity, and scratch is meant to be based off the user's creativity?
secondly, it a good idea from a social point of view? it means people don't have to talk to each other and don't build proper friendships, because they can just use AI.
Thirdly, I think this will likely lower the learning qualities of scratch. users will be able to use AI to basically do many of the tasks that require the user to think hard, and will make making a complex project less satisfying, and not as much ‘their work.’
Fourth, is it safe to have a chatbot on a website with users under 13? many studies have shown that AI can generate harmful or unsafe content, that older users may be able to use discernment to avoid and screen, but younger users might not be able to.
Fifth, if it breaks down complex code into smaller chunks so it's easier to understand, this makes the skill set that scratch is trying to develop defunct.

In all, I think that although it may be useful, it will mean the very qualities scratch is trying to teach do not have to be learnt in order to create things.

That makes sense, I agree. But I believe Scratch will make it safe for the users under 13. And yeah about it being not much “our work”, but we could always not use AI. I don't plan on using it a lot, and I'm sure others can too
