Aircraft carriers have always been prime targets, which is why methods for their protection are continually evolving. Carriers do not sail on their own. When deployed, they are surrounded by a battle group which serve as picket ships/submarines with a primary mission of carrier protection. While advents in military technology provide advantages for tactical strikes, they cannot provide the strategic global projection of power like carriers.

I’m sure one day they will be rendered obsolete by weapons advancements. But as they stand now, drones (which are utilized onboard carriers), AI and robotics have limited local roles.

Because they are. Keeping the seas open and free is literally in the U.S. Navy mission statement.
