Here is evidence: large crowds of extras have already been replaced by CGI. This is a list of 10 movies with the most number of extras: https://www.tasteofcinema.com/2017/10-movies-with-the-most-n.... The most recent entry on the list is from 2003 (~20K extras). Why would anyone hire 20K people for a movie today?
