Will UX design become obsolete?

As someone who has been closely monitoring the evolving landscape of technology and design, I have to ask: will UX design truly become obsolete in the NEAR future? With the advent of AI and machine learning, there's a growing concern that user experience design may become increasingly automated and less reliant on human input. But, on the other hand, the human element is still crucial in understanding user behavior and preferences. So, is UX design truly facing an existential threat, or is it merely evolving to meet the demands of the digital age?
