I don't think that's true. The vast majority of software development jobs require no ML at all. I don't see that changing in the next 10 to 20 years.

Even further the majority of work in ml driven products is not related to the ML model.

I don't think it is true either. But my friend tells me that multiple profs tell him that he needs to learn ML.

I learned ML in school 13 years ago. I've been happily employed since then at a major tech company with increasing responsibility and the only time I've really needed that background was to call BS on a given project needing a custom ML component.
