I think most people are either still unaware or aren't giving it much thought. They've maybe heard about it in the news and think oh cool. Maybe play with ChatGPT for a few minutes and then get bored.

That's how everyone I know has responded to it--even smart people. There's only a few who look at me with that shell shocked "how long until this is good enough to take over" look that I have when I use it.

I mean... it's not there yet, but we have no idea how long it's going to take from here. Months? Years? I'm hoping years. I would like years to be the answer.

Depends on your definition of "Take over"

I suspect there is going to be a lot of layoffs in the call center sector as soon as a customer service LLM company gets spun up with competitive rate for per company fine tune and maintenance cost.
As soon as one company does it the rest will follow swiftly. Leaving a skeleton crew of humans to verify the large changes to accounts whilst everything else is handled automatically by a LLM and speech synthases software.

Same thing will likely happen where any ridged formal structure is, law for example. A lot of stuff happens outside the court room that could be automated and likely with those branches of law that don't hold peoples lives in the balance. (e.g. corporate merges/acquisitions vs criminal trials.)

Yeah same haha. I think I need a few years to get my affairs in order :P. Maybe I can call OpenAI up and ask them to schedule it for 2026.
