Even if advances in LLMs stop right now, we still would probably see 5-10 years of integration.

Keep in mind also that it's in vogue to talk about AI bad, and taboo to talk about how much you use it in your job or life.

It's taboo to talk about how much you use it? Tell that to my LinkedIn feed. Everyone is desperate to tell me how desperately I need to use AI or I will fall behind in the rat race. Every app has an animated glowing starry "use our new AI features!" thingy that I mentally block out, no matter how much it (often literally) jumps up and down and waves at me. There is no question in my mind how badly the powerful want me to use AI and get others to use it.

There is a difference between being told to use AI and telling others you use AI.

"Our app leverages AI to make you better!"

versus

"Our app written by AI makes you better!"

The first one catches eyes, the second one is just a turn off.

how many of the people on your linkedin feed have a financial incentive to talk up AI and LLMs? LinkedIn is truly a fascinatingly weird social media
