Anyone who fell for this grift deserves it and much worse.
People, usually who have never done the job, still love to argue that it can compete with software devs and infra engineers.
The sad part they don't see (or maybe care about) is while it can't currently (and absolutely not llms) they're pushing a narrative that we should automate everyone and everything which is dangerous and moronic.
The people who have never done the work love more than anyone else to talk about how the work should be done better and cheaper.
Broadly this sentiment stands for most professions.
