Kotlin got a major push on Android, thanks to a stagnant Java 8 support.
With ChromeOS and Fuchsia on the game as well, it remains to be seen who will win Google's internal OS wars.
So far Android seems to be the one taking them all, though.
Outside Android I don't really see a major benefit switching whole teams away from Java, Eclipse/Netbeans and rewriting/wrapping libraries to be idiomatic Kotlin and such.
