You don't have to worry, it's not going to happen. LLMs does/will make individuals more efficient, therefore, reducing number of developers maybe, but you will still have the exact same bottlenecks at the exact same places throttling the delivery speed.

I'm saying there will be 10-100x more small dev shops competing with the big cos. Pizza sized teams that own the whole product and can just ship stuff without the dog and pony show that's common at larger orgs.
Big co buys them. Big co sues them. Big co lobbies to keep them out of their space etc etc. Not everything is a technical challenge.
These still exist and don't make a dent in the big cos balance sheets. They may be growing the pie though.
They'll build a billion middle of the road bland messes?
No, some of them will build midjourney with no pressure to sell like instagram did
