For the vast majority of people LLMs are deep in gimmick territory, it's the funny thing you use to generate your Ghibli style profile image or the HR email you can't bother writing.

If you not part of a very small subset of tech enthusiasts or companies directly profiting from it it really isn't that big of a deal

No, not really. This stuff is being used everywhere, from universities to offices around the world. It’s far more than a gimmick.
Having something shoved in your face because you bought the snake oil is definitely one take.

If you talk to workers being forced to use these tools you come away with a different conclusion.
