I do think it's worth considering the possibility, from a devil's advocate perspective, that software engineering was the low-hanging fruit, and thus most other domains will take longer to automate.

The answer is likely, in my opinion and experience, that the majority of the people who are early or heavy adopters of AI tend to use it to avoid effort instead of utilizing it as an effort multiplier.

Social media seems to be one of the only addictions out there where going cold turkey is the most viable option, honestly. I was addicted to both Twitter and TikTok for years before I quit both of them for good and just never went back. Granted, at that point I'd also realized that they both did me no good and were only impacting my life in a negative manner, so this may not be universally applicable.
