I'm not sure what you are trying to say exactly but it seems like you are making some sort of prediction of the future.

Video encoding, especially newer codecs like HEVC and VP9 are CPU intensive and SIMD optimized tasks that people are doing right now.

I'm not referring to any sort of future prediction, those people can switch to GPU encoding of video right now and enjoy better performance.

They asked what people are using it for right now and video encoding is one of those things. This is very direct. They didn't ask about solutions or what they should do about a particular problem, just about what people are currently doing.
