Is Symbolic Regression still a thing, given LLMs' performance? [D]

I've been teaching myself about Symbolic Regression (SR), which looks like a super exciting field. (A great intro resource below [1]).

But then I was wondering: given LLMs' increasingly-growing power in generating code, which is in a way very similar to Symbolic Regression (or of course, even directly tackling symbolic regression tasks), are existing SR techniques dead? Happy to hear your thoughts.
