The moment people realize that this tool allows you to enhance the volume and quality of your work output with little effort, whether it is authentic or not, it's use will catch on like wildfire.
Arguably it already has with students and knowledge workers, even outside tech centers. Schools and universities everywhere are suddenly contending with how to evaluate students in light of the availability of LLMs.
Why is it catching on? In the best light because it actually is a tremendous productivity accelerator. In the worst light, because we live in a world that incentivizes "fake it til you make it".

In the worst light, because we live in a world that incentivizes "fake it til you make it". It's great at a few things and pretty good at a lot of things. In my view, the thing that it's the absolute best at is churning out low value, rarely-read communication. There is a massive amount of that type of communication - spam, student essays, procedural documents for compliance. There are loads of jobs that need to do that sort of thing regularly and it's a godsend for them.
