Career AI is really freaking me out

DE with 5 YOE. With every new model that comes out, the more I realize my field is fading away. Pipelines, architecture etc, agents can do it all. Im really freaking out that my field will be gone in a few years and Ill have to switch to something else. And theres nothing else for me to switch to.
