I don’t know the attribution to this quote...

But it goes something like, “People go to a rock show to see someone believe in themselves.”

I think the reason why art and creativity will only become more valuable over time is because it’s one of the most primal and powerful ways humans express and connect with each other.

I think AI will be involved in art going forward, but as a tool not the source.

However, would there ever be a point where AI gets writer’s block or is criticized for being un-original?

I’m guessing there’s a Star Trek TNG episode featuring Data that covers that topic.

I recorded a conversation with Keith Hayden someone obsessed with AI about this very topic, and he brought up a similar point to yours…that the “human 10%” is the whimsical mark of someone who had to suffer the ups and downs of actually making the work. He said AI can’t replicate that now but he predicts it will at some point. With that said, I don’t think the value of a human making art (the experience of making something and how a project changes you) will ever go away, and as you said, some audience will be interested in hearing about that process.
