You have made me think that surely the average age of forum regulars is high, at least 45 I would say. That's probably where the reluctance comes from. People in their 20's aren't so reluctant, they are going to use AI naturally on a day to day basis.
Yes, without a doubt, the ones that openly tell us their age are over 50, and a few others I'm in close contact with are also above 40, so the average may be between 45 and 50.
Younger generations are always excited about new technologies; even at home, when you acquire a new tech, the kids are always the happiest--Grandma would always advise you not to waste money. Ask AI to draw what an average luddite looks like, then thank me later.
