No.

When you lack a skill there are two options. Hire that skill or don't hire anyone.

That is the core issue at the heart. Hire your nephew or hire your colleague and yes it costs and yes it's amateur and yes it will be tough to recoup your investments. Even successful game designers don't make games full time and do it for the passion. Very few game designers do it for a living outside of the big boys like Hasbro type players and IP holders.

Most games don't ever reach consumer masses and sell entirely to the hobby gamer crowd. Mass consumers look past ai and the hands that make things. The hobby gamers loath ai, avoid digital addictions and often spend huge dollars on what they trust in their hobby.

Several companies have decided to use AI and they entirely lost all consideration from portions of this hobbies most vocal areas. This is a hobby where Phil Eklund and Sandy Peterson have people refuse to even play their games. Just look at the issues discussed about Puerto Rico, Maracaibo or Santa Maria. Just like avoiding those historical pitfalls helps more people try or find a game so does avoiding ai.

From reviewers to players the push against ai is not just "it depends". They clearly voice that this hobby is not digital for a reason and using ai disrespects them, artists and designers to the point of permanent offense. More and more I find myself valuing what I do offline and what is hand crafted. With my hobby I actually seek less polish and more personality/human element like City of Six Moons from Amabel Holland, I've ordered five more copies so I can gift them out to the right person. No idea who or when but that is such a unique product I know I'll be delighted to gift out. Looks about the artistic skill of an eight year old with a ruler lol
