I would, but now there's free LLM's that can do what I do literally for free and 1000x faster.

Past that, I have no marketable skills that a modern LLM doesn't also have, and better. I very much doubt I'm alone in this. Between now and say, two to five years tops, my employers will know it too.

File LLMs under "confidently doing it wrong". They don't know anything, they just parrot what was scraped off the internet

Not disagreeing, but what does that help the thousands who will still lose their jobs regardless?
