There're hundreds of thousands of '3D worker' working behind the scene to create the 3D models for makeshift ads, and as far as I know many of them (including my high school mate) already got displaced by Midjourney and lost their job. This used to be a big industry but now almost entirely wiped out by AI.

To my knowledge, 3D artists weren't that huge of an industry to begin with. One of my friends went to college researching 3D physics models, and never landed a job in the field long before the AI wave hit. Unless you're a freelancer or salaried Pixar employee, being a 3D artist is extremely difficult with extraordinarily low job security, AI or no AI.
I think "almost entirely wiped out by AI" is hyperbole, because the primary employer of these artists will still be hiring and products like Sora are a good decade away from being Toy Story quality. AI will be a substitute product for people that didn't even want 3D art in the first place.
