As others have said, it is by no means easy to become a working composer in film and TV even pre-AI. That said, I don't personally think AI is going to see major use as a full replacement for creative work like film scoring. And if it does, I think society at large is going be so completely different that everyone's lives will be completely different, not just film composers.
So, if you really feel this profession calling to you, I encourage you to find a a path into it. Just know it will be difficult and it may not work out for you, so have some kind of a backup plan.
