Jobs aren’t really about what you know, they’re about the problems you can solve. The knowledge matters, sure, but it’s secondary to: can you fix this, and can you do it efficiently enough that it’s worth paying you for it?

If you’re a solid problem-solver, you can usually convince someone to give you a shot. You keep the job by solving problems well, over and over. And you get the next one by showing that you’ve done it before, faster, better, smarter. That’s the cycle.

Doesn’t matter if you use AI, pen and paper, or carrier pigeons, as long as you solve real problems, consistently then you’ll never have trouble finding work.
