Canva destroyed graphic design well before LLMs caught up, but UX is still (somewhat surprisingly) on the ropes.

Then those designers get crowded out as taste generation moves into "good enough" territory.

You can easily tell UX design roles are obsolete by the recent threads about Tahoe and W11. There is going to be whiplash.
