It's the generation currently in schools and universities that are making LLMs a part of their daily routine.
Apart from people in education, a whole SEO industry has grown around LLMs and they love the newly found powers to produce spam at scale.
In business / government space people are cautiously introducing LLMs to improve productivity in the comms area where slight hallucinations or robotic corporate language are acceptable, because the final text is still produced by a human. On the customer support / sales side companies are investing money in "AI" versions of the good old phone menu trees that inevitably make you scream "I want to speak to a human" before you get connected to a human being.
Elsewhere adoption is slow, because we expect deterministic results and these are just not to be expected. I write software that interacts with LLMs via APIs and have to implement defensive coding techniques I haven't used for over a decade, because the output may switch from the requested structure at random. This makes use of structured output or function calling problematic.
