Bitcoin Core currently has no functionality to create Segwit addresses (either P2SH nested ones or bech32 ones) in the GUI. Thus all addresses you get from the GUI are non-segwit and anyone who sends to those will be making non-segwit outputs. The legacy Bitcoin addresses did not have their definitions change.
