I actually found in my case that is just self inertia in not wanting to break through cognitive plateaus. The AI helped you with a breakthrough hence the magic, but you also did something right in your constructing of the context in the conversation with the AI; ie. you did thought and biomechanical[1] work. Now the dazzle of the AI's output makes you forget the work you still need to do, and the next time you prompt you get lazy, or you want much more, for much less.
