One funny aspect about the changing definition of "data scientist" is that I, currently a data scientist, spend most of my professional day working with the LLM/AI modeling areas nowadays and building custom models instead of building analyses and dashboards, since the former is more impactful. Job positions still want the latter, though. If I ever left my job I'm not confident I could get another job with the Data Scientist title, nor could I get a "ML Engineer" job since those focus more on deployment than development. My R is embarrassingly rusty nowadays and I miss making pretty charts with ggplot2.
