This 100%. I worked at a company and we hired on a self described "AI expert" (I think he was a friend of the founder). He didn't last long because when push came to shove and there wasn't any hard AI work to be done, the guy didn't know how to write HTML, and couldn't seem bothered to learn. And the product was a web app.

You know what else is a hard problem? Delivering a quality product on time and in good working order. Not everything has to be at a million user scale for it to be considered a difficult task.
