The marketing industry is fracturing fast, and the break isn't happening where most people are looking. The bottom is getting cut out from under SEO agencies, PPC shops, funnel builders, and copywriters, not slowly, but all at once. What gets unpacked is who survives that collapse, and why the answer has almost nothing to do with your technical skills.
The argument is about positioning at a level most marketers have never seriously considered. There is a clear line between the roles that AI and hungry college grads with Claude accounts are already eating alive, and the one role that only gets more valuable as the chaos deepens.
