Exactly, which is why I was so ready to push back. I'm actually a bit surprised that GPT-5 didn't automatically search the web for this question though, from the very start.

These things are dumb. They need to be hammered over and over to do and not do stuff. Even then they still do weird things. It's early and I can't take people seriously that think it's game over because of generative AI.

Seriously. Anyone who's used them for any serious work sees their limitations quite clearly.
On the other hand, the progress in AI in the last 4 years truly has been astonishing, so maybe it's that pace of change projected forward that people are worried about.
And the other thing I'll say is, the AI is better than 90% of undergraduates at knowledge based tasks. Factoring in cost and speed, there's no way I'd hire an undergrad fresh out of college to do things like research stuff for me, or even annotate data for me, now that I have AI in my pocket.

With my work it's better than most junior devs when you consider the cost and hand holding one must do with a new Dev. Basically it can allow someone that knows what they are doing be more productive. In theory at least.
