Very interesting. LLMs at the state today certainly do feel like a Cambrian explosion on software with more code is being written/generated than ever. Throughout my career it felt like solving one problem opened the door for many more. To infinity and beyond! With all the trepidation coming from the maths community (Terrence Tao in particular), I am optimistic that many previously overlooked opportunities in software will now be filled.

I don't think this optimistic take is what vast majority of people experience in their daily lives. The AI gets used as glorified Google, and the AI-generated videos get pushed to the elderly as they can't tell the difference.

Or am I out of the loop and people outside the tech world do use it in a way I'm not aware of?
