I seem to recall about 13 years ago when "the cloud" was going to put everyone in IT Ops out of a job. At least according to people who have no idea what the IT department actually does.

"The cloud" certainly had an impact but the one thing it definitely did NOT do was send every system and network admin to the unemployment office. If anything it increased the demand for those kinds of jobs.

I remain unconcerned about my future career prospects.

Yes... because there will be users who will always refuse to fix their own computer issues. Even if there's an easy solution at their fingertips. Many don't even try to reboot. They just tell IT to fix it... then go get coffee for a half hour.
