This is an interesting comparison, but the resulting product of an LLM aren't deterministic in the same way machinery in an assembly line is. You typically expect to get the exact same thing every time as an assembly line worker, and it's usually fairly obvious when something is wrong or off.
So while I agree with your invocation of Marx and the alienation of labor, but I don't know if we really can compare it to the automation of manual labor.
