The point is more, what network? servers? backups? if all you need for your business is handled over encrypted connections to hosted services, another company is your server, and they do your backups. Do you even need a network in a traditional sense, or do you just have 4G on your devices through a company plan? IT will never go away, but for many common scenarios it becomes a simpler problem that needs fewer dedicated resources. A lot of young people don't know how to control a modem with AT commands. A lot of young people don't understand how to resolve IRQ conflicts. Why do you need to configure a router's firewall rules? You only really need a configurable firewall if you expect to receive incoming connections. The servers that are going to exist on your own premises instead of as cloud/saas solutions or just colocated are already decreasing. As they decrease, the need to support them shifts to the businesses that operate those services. Eventually in those circumstances, it's only the planning, implementation and migration that requires technical know-how. Well, and those creating the services.
