Software engineering teaches you a set of skills that are applicable in more places than just writing software. There are big parts of the job that cannot be done by LLMs (today) and if LLMs get better (or AGI happens) then enough other professions will be affected that we will all be in the same boat (no matter what you major in).

LLMs are just tools, they help but they do not replace developers (yet).

Yes but they will certainly have a lot of downward pressure on salaries for sure.
