Hey OP - I think I have been where you are a couple of times in my career. For me, taking time off has been the answer, optionally structured as a cold-turkey break for a month (travel / pick up a hobby / learn something completely new / do nothing at all), followed by easing into the new set of work things you "want to" worry about. That may or may not be ML or ML-adjacent, I've always believed that smart people find a way. On the other hand, after you've dealt with your current state of mind, I'd love to have a chat with you because I see that we share some passions and I'm building something new in the AI space to help people build sane ML pipelines!
