Correct.

But...

We _do know_ that companies are typically driven by greed and profit, so if it is possible for them to replace their human workers with something that does a similar level of work but also does not require a paycheck, we would be absolute fools to assume that they won't do everything in their power to make that a reality, regardless of the understood reliability of LLMs.

Unless its too expensive or just doesn't work well. Although in entrenched fields like healthcare that act with impunity I guess an LLM would make a slightly cheaper firewall between the industry and the customers you "serve".

We also know that incompetent management is widespread, so many companies would replace their humans workers with LLMs even if it is not possible, and we know many investors are also incompetent, so these companies might even be allowed to continue to exist and might even grow really big.
