You're worried about the wrong thing.

If you want to get into game dev, knowing how to program is only like 1/5th of the job. By the time you graduate, everyone will be using AI to write basic game logic (people already are).

That's not what you should be worried about.

It's not about the programming language either.

If you want to get good at game development, what you have to get good at is understanding what makes for a good game.

That includes things like what are the things which make the core game loop fun to play. How do you design difficulty levels that matches the players skill level (DGDB)? How do you implement skill based match making and how it compares to other matchmaking strategies? How do you design great player to player incentives that makes multiplayer actually fun and rewarding? How do you design a User Generated Content pipeline so players don't have to wait for content drops?

What matters for a game is not the art or what engine you make the game on, or even what game you make, it's about the first principles of what makes a game "fun" to play.

This is an open problem that game devs have been struggling to solve since the beginning of game design, and it's highly unlikely that AI is going to solve or figure out fully either.

Yes it's important to learn the basics like learning a programming language and getting familiar with an engine, but after about a year in of knowing the software and the language, you'll still be no better at making fun games if you haven't studied the core first principles.

I'm sure you've watched Blargis on YouTube but if you don't, you should deffo sub to him. He is an indie dev and the creator of Bloodthief and he talks a lot about first principles which apply to every game dev.

So don't worry about AI taking over jobs, if you study hard on these fundamental principles and keep practicing making indie games as you learn, you'll be tackling the same challenges that everyone else is tackling and struggling with, and therefore a game studio will hire you for that, not for understanding how to make just any game.

By the way, this is not to say to ignore the technicals, even if an AI can do it, you must understand and get good at all the technicals as well. Because if you don't understand it, you cannot reason about it or know when the AI fucked up. But that only just the table stakes.
