You're right. Simply increasing supply of candidates will not increase demand from employers for those candidates. However, if ML continues to become more and more important for businesses to remain competitive (and there seem to be a lot of indications that it will), you can bet that demand will increase and then, eventually, supply. Perhaps you could even argue that that is what's driving the current increase in supply. Either way, companies will probably eventually feel a lot of pressure to look beyond academic credentials if they want to actually build up teams focused on those technologies.
