This is my thinking as well.

Low risk work is tremendously accelerated. Just look at the memes that people re building. One of my favorite right now are derivations of this thing: https://x.com/jamesonhodge/status/2118733265372860826

People are running away with it in hilarious ways using all sorts of storyboarding, 3d environments, gameplay, etc etc.

I work in a highly regulated environment. My AI spend is ~$300/week and it has been tremendously helpful in troubleshooting incidents(!), increasing test coverage, gaining understanding of legacy/inherited code, applying fixes, etc. But shipping new features is something that impacts us in many many many ways and the uptake there has been quite slow.
