“AI makes hacking easy” is like saying “building houses is now easy because we have cranes”. Sure, but if you jump into a crane without knowing what you’re doing it’s not magically going to make a house appear.

Fair enough; at least we’re on the same page as far as what we disagree about.
Your metaphor strays too far from the topic to be relevant. Here’s one that I believe is closer and makes your position look as silly as you made mine look:
“AI makes hacking easy” is like saying “ovens make cooking easy” when fires exist.
Many more people who couldn’t or wouldn’t cook before don’t have to worry about measuring or guessing temperature, manual cook times, setting up a cooking surface, etc. Does the meal cook itself? Obviously not - you still need a recipe and plenty of manual effort.
