A few observations from talking to people outside AI bubble world in recent weeks:

1) to the extent that they follow anything that Dario/Sam/etc say about AI & jobs, they think these people are wrong;

2) people outside AI bubble world readily point to Tyler Cowen-eque real-world impediments to AI adoption and diffusion;

3) when shown what AI can do they acknowledge its utility but struggle to map that utility to any problem in their life which requires it;

4) to the extent that anyone derives substantive benefit from AI it isbecause they have used the technology for hundreds or thousands of hours over a sustained period of time and have come to develop an intuitive sense of the tools' promise (and sometimes peril); for most people this is a non-starter;

5) point (4) is true about the current form factor of AI but says nothing about its future, akin to electricity adoption cycles.
