Not quite put people out of a job as much as have absolute control over their entire product. They're using the convenience and low cost business model to hoover up developers (who are taking the bait) while not realizing that they're becoming wholly dependent on Amazon. Not just technically, but in terms of their mental model on how to build and deploy applications. Over time, "just use AWS" becomes the defacto "how do I build this?" answer until nobody really knows how to build and deploy an application without them. It's damn clever.
