Indeed. It's all a shell game to crush the power of labor (particularly in the tech industry) and pump up stock prices. It's definitely enshittifying work for a lot of people, but an apocalypse it is not. All the nigh-eschatological talk comes from the mouths of specious tech CEOs trying to keep the scam going.
