I wonder if this site isn't impressed because there are a lot of 1% coders here that don't understand what most people do at work. It's mostly administrative. Take this spreadsheet, combine with this one, stuff it into power BI, email it to Debbie so she can spell check it and send to the client. Y'all forget there are companies that actually make things that don't have insane valuations like your bullshit apps do. A company that scopes municipal sewer pipes can't afford a $500k/yr dev, so there's a few $60k/yr office workers that fiddle with reports and spreadsheets all day. It's literally a whole department in some cases. Those are the jobs that are about to be replaced and there are a lot of those jobs out there.
I think it's because it's mostly old people which tends to come with being uninspired and jaded from previous hypes. There's always been the same attitude towards cryptocurrency. Young people are drawn to exciting new things that really break open their existing worldviews. Bitcoin was pioneered by teenagers and young men.
Also, people in general quickly adapt. LLMs are absolute sci-fi magic but you forget that easily. Here's a comedian's view on that phenomenon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUBtKNzoKZ4
